摘要：AbstractNon-orthogonal signal representation using redundant dictionaries gradually gained popularity over the last decades. Sparse methods find major application in signal denoising, audio declipping, time-frequency analysis, and classification, to name a few. This paper is inspired by the exceptional results of sparse representation classification originally suggested for face recognition. We compare the method to other common classifiers using simulated as well as real datasets. In the latter the proposed method is tested with real pressure data from a bed equipped with a matrix of 30 × 11 pressure sensors. Here the method outperforms standard classification methods (surpassing 91 % accuracy) without need of parameter selection or special user's skills. Furthermore it offers a means of dealing with occlusions, whose results are presented as well.
