Binary sparse phase retrieval via simulated annealing (Q1793640)

Summary: This paper presents the Simulated Annealing Sparse PhAse Recovery (SASPAR) algorithm for reconstructing sparse binary signals from their phaseless magnitudes of the Fourier transform. The greedy strategy version is also proposed for a comparison, which is a parameter-free algorithm. Sufficient numeric simulations indicate that our method is quite effective and suggest the binary model is robust. The SASPAR algorithm seems competitive to the existing methods for its efficiency and high recovery rate even with fewer Fourier measurements.
