The entropy-based measurement conjecture for binary sparse recovery

Let AA be the measurement matrix in the linear system

Ax=b.Ax=b.

Assume that the entries of AA are independent and identically distributed according to an absolutely continuous distribution. Let xx be a binary kk-sparse solution, and let HH denote the binary entropy function.

Entropy-based measurement conjecture. For sufficiently large nn, the linear program referred to as LP~ exactly recovers xx from nH(k/n)/2nH(k/n)/2 measurements.

This conjecture proposes an information-theoretic measurement threshold for exact recovery of binary sparse solutions under absolutely continuous measurement ensembles. The supplied text gives no resolution, so its status remains open.
