Decoding a Reed-Solomon code can be modeled by a bilinear system which can be solved by Gr\"obner basis techniques. We will show that in this particular case, these techniques are much more efficient than for generic bilinear systems with…

We present a framework that can exploit the tradeoff between the undetected error rate (UER) and block error rate (BLER) of polar-like codes. It is compatible with all successive cancellation (SC)-based decoding methods and relies on a…

We show that polynomial codes (and some related codes) used for distributed matrix multiplication are interleaved Reed-Solomon codes and, hence, can be collaboratively decoded. We consider a fault tolerant setup where $t$ worker nodes…
