  We provide two novel adaptive-rate compressive sensing (CS) strategies for
sparse, time-varying signals using side information. Our first method utilizes
extra cross-validation measurements, and the second one exploits extra
low-resolution measurements. Unlike the majority of current CS techniques, we
do not assume that we know an upper bound on the number of significant
coefficients that comprise the images in the video sequence. Instead, we use
the side information to predict the number of significant coefficients in the
signal at the next time instant. For each image in the video sequence, our
techniques specify a fixed number of spatially-multiplexed CS measurements to
acquire, and adjust this quantity from image to image. Our strategies are
developed in the specific context of background subtraction for surveillance
video, and we experimentally validate the proposed methods on real video
sequences.
