Consider two or more strings $\mathbf{x}^1,\mathbf{x}^2,\ldots,$ that are concatenated to form $\mathbf{x}=\langle \mathbf{x}^1,\mathbf{x}^2,\ldots \rangle$. Suppose that up to $\delta$ deletions occur in each of the concatenated strings.…
In recent years, the emergence of DNA storage systems has led to a widespread focus on the research of codes correcting insertions, deletions, and classic substitutions. During the initial investigation, Levenshtein discovered the VT codes…
In this paper, we propose a partitioning technique that decomposes a pair of sequences with overlapping $t$-deletion $s$-substitution balls into sub-pairs, where the $^{\leq}t$-burst-deletion balls of each sub-pair intersect. This…
Motivated by the need to communicate short control messages in 5G and beyond, this paper carefully designs codes for cyclic redundancy check (CRC)-aided list decoding of tail-biting convolutional codes (TBCCs) and polar codes. Both codes…
In this paper, we present an efficiently encodable and decodable code construction that is capable of correction a burst of deletions of length at most $k$. The redundancy of this code is $\log n + k(k+1)/2\log \log n+c_k$ for some constant…
In coding theory, handling errors that occur when symbols are inserted or deleted from a transmitted message is a long-standing challenge. Optimising redundancy for insertion and deletion channels remains a key open problem with significant…
The problem of correcting deletions and insertions has recently received significantly increased attention due to the DNA-based data storage technology, which suffers from deletions and insertions with extremely high probability. In this…
Recent work by Smagloy et al. (ISIT 2020) shows that the redundancy of a single-deletion $s$-substitution correcting code is asymptotically at least $(s+1)\log n+o(\log n)$, where $n$ is the length of the codes. They also provide a…
In this work, we consider the problem of efficient decoding of codes from insertions and deletions. Most of the known efficient codes are codes with synchronization strings which allow one to reduce the problem of decoding insertions and…
In this paper, we study how often unique decoding from $t$ insertions or $t$ deletions occurs for error correcting codes. Insertions and deletions frequently occur in synchronization problems and DNA, a medium which is beginning to be used…
We construct deletion error-correcting codes in the oblivious model, where errors are adversarial but oblivious to the encoder's randomness. Oblivious errors bridge the gap between the adversarial and random error models, and are motivated…
Emerging applications in manufacturing, wireless communication, and molecular data storage require robust coding schemes that remain effective under physical distortions where codewords may be arbitrarily fragmented and partially missing.…
We investigate the problem of encoding data into an $(n, t)$-break-resilient code ($(n, t)$-BRC), i.e., a collections of sequences of length~$n$ from which the original data can be reconstructed even if they are adversarially broken at up…
We consider the problem of constructing codes that can correct $\delta$ deletions occurring in an arbitrary binary string of length $n$ bits. Varshamov-Tenengolts (VT) codes, dating back to 1965, are zero-error single deletion $(\delta=1)$…
An edit refers to a single insertion, deletion, or substitution. This paper aims to construct binary codes that can correct two edits. To do this, a necessary and sufficient condition for a code to be two-edit correctable is provided,…
This paper constructs a non-binary code correcting a single $b$-burst of insertions or deletions with a large cardinality. This paper also proposes a decoding algorithm of this code and evaluates a lower bound of the cardinality of this…
One of the main challenges in developing racetrack memory systems is the limited precision in controlling the track shifts, that in turn affects the reliability of reading and writing the data. A current proposal for combating deletions in…
The problem of designing codes for deletion-correction and synchronization has received renewed interest due to applications in DNA-based data storage systems that use nanopore sequencers as readout platforms. In almost all instances,…
In this work, we propose constructions that correct duplications of multiple consecutive symbols. These errors are known as tandem duplications, where a sequence of symbols is repeated; respectively as palindromic duplications, where a…
The problem of correcting deletions has received significant attention, partly because of the prevalence of these errors in DNA data storage. In this paper, we study the problem of correcting a consecutive burst of at most $t$ deletions in…
