DESCRIPTION:A new way of thinking about signal acquisition has recently em
 erged called compressed sensing. The basic philosophy is to try to sample 
 close to some measure of information rate of the signal rather than the tr
 aditional Shannon/Nyquist rate without recourse to adaptive sampling. This
  talk will review some of the underlying theory that explains why under ce
 rtain circumstances this is possible. It will then look at some of the pra
 ctical algorithmic solutions to the signal approximation problem that have
  been developed. I will conclude with a couple of specific example applica
 tions that we are looking at in Edinburgh.\n
