The objective of this thesis was to explore, both numerically and theoretically, the potential of compressive sensing for the manipulation of large (audiovisual) databases. A particular objective was to propose learning techniques that can work on strongly compressed versions of a large corpus of data while maintaining the ability to infer essential characteristics of the distribution of the items in the corpus.
