In the problem of variable-length $\delta$-channel resolvability, the channel output is approximated by encoding a variable-length uniform random number under the constraint that the variational distance between the target and approximated…
The deletion channel is the simplest point-to-point communication channel that models lack of synchronization. Despite significant effort, little is known about its capacity, and even less about optimal coding schemes. In this paper we…
The edit distance (a.k.a. the Levenshtein distance) between two strings is defined as the minimum number of insertions, deletions or substitutions of symbols needed to transform one string into another. The problem of computing the edit…
Regenerating codes allow distributed storage systems to recover from the loss of a storage node while transmitting the minimum possible amount of data across the network. We present a systematic computer search for optimal systematic…
Codes for correcting sticky insertions/deletions and limited-magnitude errors have attracted significant attention due to their applications of flash memories, racetrack memories, and DNA data storage systems. In this paper, we first…
The $\ell_1$-synthesis model and the $\ell_1$-analysis model recover structured signals from their undersampled measurements. The solution of former is a sparse sum of dictionary atoms, and that of the latter makes sparse correlations with…
Recently a number of CNN-based techniques were proposed to remove image compression artifacts. As in other restoration applications, these techniques all learn a mapping from decompressed patches to the original counterparts under the…
Entity linking (EL), the task of disambiguating mentions in text by linking them to entities in a knowledge graph, is crucial for text understanding, question answering or conversational systems. Entity linking on short text (e.g., single…
In the \emph{trace reconstruction problem}, an unknown source string $x \in \{0,1\}^n$ is sent through a probabilistic \emph{deletion channel} which independently deletes each bit with probability $\delta$ and concatenates the surviving…
We propose two systematic constructions of deletion-correcting codes for protecting quantum information. The first one works with qudits of any dimension, but only one deletion is corrected and the constructed codes are asymptotically bad.…
The goal of a denoising algorithm is to reconstruct a signal from its noise-corrupted observations. Perfect reconstruction is seldom possible and performance is measured under a given fidelity criterion. In a recent work, the authors…
A graph $G$ is said to be a $(k,\ell)$-graph if its vertex set can be partitioned into $k$ independent sets and $\ell$ cliques. It is well established that the recognition problem for $(k,\ell)$-graphs is NP-complete whenever $k \geq 3$ or…
In this work, we present a new version of non-binary VT codes that are capable of correcting a single deletion or single insertion. Moreover, we provide the first known linear time algorithms that encode user messages into these codes of…
We consider rate R = k/n causal linear codes that map a sequence of k-dimensional binary vectors {b_t} to a sequence of n-dimensional binary vectors {c_t}, such that each c_t is a function of {b_1,b_2,...,b_t}. Such a code is called anytime…
This paper gives a brief survey of binary single-deletion-correcting codes. The Varshamov-Tenengolts codes appear to be optimal, but many interesting unsolved problems remain. The connections with shift-register sequences also remain…
This paper focuses on error thresholds for Pauli channels. We numerically compute lower bounds for the thresholds using the analytic framework of coset weight enumerators pioneered by DiVincenzo, Shor and Smolin in 1998. In particular, we…
We consider a new formulation of a class of synchronization error channels and derive analytical bounds and numerical estimates for the capacity of these channels. For the binary channel with only deletions, we obtain an expression for the…
This paper considers the classical error correcting problem which is frequently discussed in coding theory. We wish to recover an input vector $f \in \R^n$ from corrupted measurements $y = A f + e$. Here, $A$ is an $m$ by $n$ (coding)…
Deep learning based reconstruction methods deliver outstanding results for solving inverse problems and are therefore becoming increasingly important. A recently invented class of learning-based reconstruction methods is the so-called NETT…
We study the problem of reconstructing an unknown point in $\mathbb{R}^d$ from approximate linear queries. This setting arises naturally in applications ranging from low-dimensional remote sensing and signal recovery to high-dimensional…
