Owing to their high accuracy and ease of formulation, there has been great interest in applying convex optimization techniques, particularly that of semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxation, to tackle the sensor network localization problem in recent years. However, a drawback of such techniques is that the resulting convex program is often expensive to solve. In order to speed up computation, various edge sparsification heuristics have been proposed, whose aim is to reduce the number of edges in the input graph. Although these heuristics do reduce the size of the convex program and hence make it faster to solve, they are often ad hoc in nature and do not preserve the localization properties of the input. As such, one often has to face a tradeoff between solution accuracy and computational effort. In this paper, we propose a novel edge sparsification heuristic that can provably preserve the localization properties of the original input. At the heart of our heuristic is a graph decomposition procedure, which allows us to identify certain sparse generically universally rigid subgraphs of the input graph. Our computational results show that the proposed approach can significantly reduce the computational and memory complexities of SDP-based algorithms for solving the sensor network localization problem. Moreover, it compares favorably with existing speedup approaches, both in terms of accuracy and solution time.
