Error-correcting codes are a method for representing data, so that one can recover the original information even if some parts of it were corrupted. The basic idea, which dates back to the revolutionary work of Shannon and Hamming about a…

An encoder wishes to minimize the bit rate necessary to guarantee that a decoder is able to calculate a symbolwise function of a sequence available only at the encoder and a sequence that can be measured only at the decoder. This classical…
Generalization to novel visual conditions remains a central challenge for both human and machine vision, yet standard robustness metrics offer limited insight into how systems trade accuracy for robustness. We introduce a…
Folded Reed-Solomon (FRS) codes are variants of Reed-Solomon codes, known for their optimal list decoding radius. We show explicit FRS codes with rate $R$ that can be list decoded up to radius $1-R-\epsilon$ with lists of size…
