We propose two low-complexity lattice code constructions that have competitive coding and shaping gains. The first construction, named systematic Voronoi shaping, maps short blocks of integers to the dithered Voronoi integers, which are…
Voronoi constellations (VCs) are finite sets of vectors of a coding lattice enclosed by the translated Voronoi region of a shaping lattice, which is a sublattice of the coding lattice. In conventional VCs, the shaping lattice is a scaled-up…
In this paper we are concerned with finding the vertices of the Voronoi cell of a Euclidean lattice. Given a basis of a lattice, we prove that computing the number of vertices is a #P-hard problem. On the other hand we describe an algorithm…
This paper focuses on the encoding and decoding of Construction D' coding lattices that can be used with shaping lattices for power-constrained channels. Two encoding methods and a decoding algorithm for Construction D' lattices are given.…
Encoding and indexing of lattice codes is generalized from self-similar lattice codes to a broader class of lattices. If coding lattice $\Lambda_{\textrm{c}}$ and shaping lattice $\Lambda_{\textrm{s}}$ satisfy $\Lambda_{\textrm{s}}…
In this note we give a polynomial time algorithm for solving the closest vector problem in the class of zonotopal lattices. The Voronoi cell of a zonotopal lattice is a zonotope, i.e. a projection of a regular cube. Examples of zonotopal…

The goal of learning to hash (L2H) is to derive data-dependent hash functions from a given data distribution in order to map data from the input space to a binary coding space. Despite the success of L2H, two observations have cast doubt on…

The advent of quantum computing necessitates the transition of worldwide cryptosystems to post-quantum cryptography (PQC), which is founded upon the problem of finding short vectors in high-dimensional structured lattices. It is assumed…
We present an adaptation of Voronoi theory for imaginary quadratic number fields of class number greater than 1. This includes a characterisation of extreme Hermitian forms which is analogous to the classic characterisation of extreme…
Lattices and partially ordered sets have played an increasingly important role in coding theory, providing combinatorial frameworks for studying structural and algebraic properties of error-correcting codes. Motivated by recent works…
We investigate the problem of image retrieval based on visual queries when the latter comprise arbitrary regions-of-interest (ROI) rather than entire images. Our proposal is a compact image descriptor that combines the state-of-the-art in…

Low density parity check (LDPC) lattices are obtained from Construction D' and a family of nested binary LDPC codes. We consider an special case of these lattices with one binary LDPC code as underlying code. This special case of LDPC…
We consider the root lattice $A_n$ and derive explicit formulae for the moments of its Voronoi cell. We then show that these formulae enable accurate prediction of the error probability of lattice codes constructed from $A_n$.
