In this paper, we consider the problem of subsampling and reconstruction of signals that reside on the vertices of a product graph, such as sensor network time series, genomic signals, or product ratings in a social network. Specifically, we leverage the product structure of the underlying domain and sample nodes from the graph factors. The proposed scheme is particularly useful for processing signals on large-scale product graphs. The sampling sets are designed using a low-complexity greedy algorithm and can be proven to be near-optimal. To illustrate the developed theory, numerical experiments based on real datasets are provided for sampling 3D dynamic point clouds and for active learning in recommender systems.

We consider the problem of designing sparse sampling strategies for multidomain signals, which can be represented using tensors that admit a known multilinear decomposition. We leverage the multidomain structure of tensor signals and propose to acquire samples using a Kronecker-structured sensing function, thereby circumventing the curse of dimensionality. For designing such sensing functions, we develop low-complexity greedy algorithms based on submodular optimization methods to compute near-optimal sampling sets. We present several numerical examples, ranging from multiantenna communications to graph signal processing, to validate the developed theory.@en
