On the (Generative) Linear Sketching Problem

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2603.14474v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Sketch techniques have been extensively studied in recent years and are especially well-suited to data streaming scenarios, where the sketch summary is updated quickly and compactly. However, it is challenging to recover the current state from these summaries in a way that is accurate, fast, and real. In this paper, we seek a solution that reconciles this tension, aiming for near-perfect recovery with lightweight computational procedures. Focusing on linear sketching problems of the form $\boldsymbol{\Phi}f \rightarrow f$, our study proceeds in three stages. First, we dissect existing techniques and show the root cause of the sketching dilemma: an orthogonal information loss. Second, we examine how generative priors can be leveraged to br
