We investigate the design of two neural network (NN) architectures recently proposed as decoders for forward error correction: the so-called single-label NN (SLNN) and multi-label NN (MLNN) decoders. These decoders have been reported to…

For some applications where the speed of decoding and the fault tolerance are important, like in video storing, one of the successful answers is Fix-Free Codes. These codes have been applied in some standards like H.263+ and MPEG-4. The…

Bitmap indexes are frequently used to index multidimensional data. They rely mostly on sequential input/output. Bitmaps can be compressed to reduce input/output costs and minimize CPU usage. The most efficient compression techniques are…

The task of finding a criterion allowing to distinguish a text from an arbitrary set of words is rather relevant in itself, for instance, in the aspect of development of means for internet-content indexing or separating signals and noise in…

Term Coding asks: given a finite system of term identities $\Gamma$ in $v$ variables, how large can its solution set be on an $n$--element alphabet, when we are free to choose the interpretations of the function symbols? This turns familiar…

Zipf's law of abbreviation, the tendency of more frequent words to be shorter, is one of the most solid candidates for a linguistic universal, in the sense that it has the potential for being exceptionless or with a number of exceptions…

This work examines the possibility of using syllable embeddings, instead of the often used $n$-gram embeddings, as subword embeddings. We investigate this for two languages: English and Dutch. To this end, we also translated two standard…

Let $\Gamma$ denote a distance-regular graph. The maximum size of codewords with minimum distance at least $d$ is denoted by $A(\Gamma,d)$. Let $\square_n$ denote the folded $n$-cube $H(n,2)$. We give an upper bound on $A(\square_n,d)$…

The eXtensible Markup Language (XML) provides a powerful and flexible means of encoding and exchanging data. As it turns out, its main advantage as an encoding format (namely, its requirement that all open and close markup tags are present…

This paper considers vector network coding solutions based on rank-metric codes and subspace codes. The main result of this paper is that vector solutions can significantly reduce the required alphabet size compared to the optimal scalar…

We consider the problem of constructing deletion correcting codes over a binary alphabet and take a graph theoretic view. An $n$-bit $s$-deletion correcting code is an independent set in a particular graph. We propose constructing such a…

A range of recent works addresses the problem of compression of sequence of tokens into a shorter sequence of real-valued vectors to be used as inputs instead of token embeddings or key-value cache. These approaches are focused on reduction…

In this paper we study the adaptive prefix coding problem in cases where the size of the input alphabet is large. We present an online prefix coding algorithm that uses $O(\sigma^{1 / \lambda + \epsilon}) $ bits of space for any constants…

For any given alphabet of size $q$, a Homopolymer Free code (HF code) refers to an $(n, M, d)_q$ code of length $n$, size $M$ and minimum Hamming distance $d$, where all the codewords are homopolymer free sequences. For any given alphabet,…

Let $A(n,d)$ be the maximum number of $0,1$ words of length $n$, any two having Hamming distance at least $d$. We prove $A(20,8)=256$, which implies that the quadruply shortened Golay code is optimal. Moreover, we show $A(18,6)\leq 673$,…
