Efficient and lightweight quantized compressive sensing using μ-law

IoT devices for video sensing need to operate within the constraints of limited bandwidth and low computing capabilities. To that effect, Compressive Sensing (CS) emerged as a prominent technique for balancing the quality of images/video and the computing/communication overheads. For CS of video dat...
