idamnjanovic@1: SMALLbox is a MATLAB Evaluation Framework for the EU FET-OPEN Project, no: 225913:
idamnjanovic@1: Sparse Models, Algorithms, and Learning for Large-scale data (SMALL). 
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: The project team includes researchers from the following institutions:

idamnjanovic@1: Version 0.5 of SMALLbox will download and install the following existing toolboxes 
idamnjanovic@1: related to Sparse Representations, Compressed Sensing and Dictionary Learning:
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: Sparco:               http://www.cs.ubc.ca/labs/scl/sparco/
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: SPGL1:                http://www.cs.ubc.ca/labs/scl/spgl1/
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: SparseLab:            http://sparselab.stanford.edu/  
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: Sparsify:             http://www.see.ed.ac.uk/~tblumens/sparsify/sparsify.html
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: GPSR:                 http://www.lx.it.pt/~mtf/GPSR/
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: OMPbox and KSVDBox:   http://www.cs.technion.ac.il/~ronrubin/
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: IMPORTANT:
idamnjanovic@1: In order to use SparseLab please register at
idamnjanovic@1: http://cgi.stanford.edu/group/sparselab/cgi-bin/register.pl
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: IMPORTANT:
idamnjanovic@1: To successfully install all toolboxes you will need to have MEX setup to compile C files.
idamnjanovic@1: If this is not already setup, run "mex -setup" or type "help mex" in the MATLAB command prompt.
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: IMPORTANT:
idamnjanovic@1: Because the toolboxes are downloaded automatically, you must have an internet connection
idamnjanovic@1: to successfully install SMALLbox.
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: IMPORTANT:
idamnjanovic@1: If you are running Matlab on MAC OSX or Linux, you must start Matlab with the jvm enabled.
idamnjanovic@1: Not doing so, will prevent you being able to unzip the downloaded toolboxes.
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: To install the toolbox run the command "SMALLboxsetup" from the MATLAB command prompt.
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: Once installed, there are two optional demo functions that can be run,
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: SMALL_solver_test.m :
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: Example test of solvers from different toolboxes on Sparco compressed sensing problems
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: and 
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: SMALL_solver_test_Audio.m :
idamnjanovic@1: 
idamnjanovic@1: Example test of solvers on Sparco audio source separation problems
