We investigate weakly constrained codes, in which specific patterns occur with prescribed frequencies rather than being strictly forbidden as in conventional constrained coding. We propose a capacity-achieving construction of a weakly…
New soft- and hard decision decoding algorithms are presented for general Reed-Muller codes $\left\{\genfrac{}{}{0pt}{}{m}{r}\right\} $ of length $2^{m}$ and distance $2^{m-r}$. We use Plotkin $(u,u+v)$ construction and decompose code…
Binary codes are widely used to represent the data due to their small storage and efficient computation. However, there exists an ambiguity problem that lots of binary codes share the same Hamming distance to a query. To alleviate the…
Polar coding gives rise to the first explicit family of codes that provably achieve capacity with efficient encoding and decoding for a wide range of channels. However, its performance at short block lengths is far from optimal. Arikan has…
Polar codes are the first class of capacity-achieving forward error correction (FEC) codes. They have been selected as one of the coding schemes for the 5G communication systems due to their excellent error correction performance when…
We construct efficient, unconditional non-malleable codes that are secure against tampering functions computed by small-depth circuits. For constant-depth circuits of polynomial size (i.e. $\mathsf{AC^0}$ tampering functions), our codes…
Distributed matrix computations -- matrix-matrix or matrix-vector multiplications -- are well-recognized to suffer from the problem of stragglers (slow or failed worker nodes). Much of prior work in this area is (i) either sub-optimal in…

Diffusion Large Language Models (DLLMs) have emerged as a compelling alternative to Autoregressive models, designed for fast parallel generation. However, existing DLLMs are plagued by a severe quality-speed trade-off, where faster parallel…
Reed-Solomon (RS) codes are among the most ubiquitous codes due to their good parameters as well as efficient encoding and decoding procedures. However, RS codes suffer from having a fixed length. In many applications where the length is…
Most of the attention in statistical compression is given to the space used by the compressed sequence, a problem completely solved with optimal prefix codes. However, in many applications, the storage space used to represent the prefix…
Flash memories intended for SSD and mobile applications need to provide high random I/O performance. This requires using efficient schemes for reading small chunks of data (e.g. 0.5KB - 4KB) from random addresses. Furthermore, in order to…

Today, visual data is often analyzed by a neural network without any human being involved, which demands for specialized codecs. For standard-compliant codec adaptations towards certain information sinks, HEVC or VVC provide the possibility…
