Linearized Reed--Solomon (LRS) codes are sum-rank-metric codes that generalize both Reed--Solomon and Gabidulin codes. We study vertically and horizontally interleaved LRS (VILRS and HILRS) codes whose codewords consist of a fixed number of…

In this paper, we propose a novel function named Rate Distortion-in-Distortion (RDD) function as an extension of the classical rate-distortion (RD) function, where the expected distortion constraint is replaced by a Gromov-type distortion.…

We define a virtual projection of a Reed-Solomon code $RS(q^{l},n,k)$ to an $RS(q,n,k)$ Reed-Solomon code. A new probabilistic decoding algorithm that can be used to perform fractional decoding beyond the $\alpha$- decoding radius is…

The rate-distortion performance of neural image compression models has exceeded the state-of-the-art for non-learned codecs, but neural codecs are still far from widespread deployment and adoption. The largest obstacle is having efficient…

Reed-Muller (RM) codes achieve the capacity of general binary-input memoryless symmetric channels and are conjectured to have a comparable performance to that of random codes in terms of scaling laws. However, such results are established…
