Racetrack memory is a non-volatile memory engineered to provide both high density and low latency, that is subject to synchronization or shift errors. This paper describes a fast coding solution, in which delimiter bits assist in…
A complete classification of the perfect binary one-error-correcting codes of length 15 as well as their extensions of length 16 was recently carried out in [P. R. J. \"Osterg{\aa}rd and O. Pottonen, "The perfect binary one-error-correcting…
A binary 1-error-correcting code can always be embedded in a 1-perfect code of some larger length
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 $(\delta=1)$…
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…
Distributed storage systems need to store data redundantly in order to provide some fault-tolerance and guarantee system reliability. Different coding techniques have been proposed to provide the required redundancy more efficiently than…
Motivated by systems where the information is represented by a graph, such as neural networks, associative memories, and distributed systems, we present in this work a new class of codes, called codes over graphs. Under this paradigm, the…
A covering code is a set of codewords with the property that the union of balls, suitably defined, around these codewords covers an entire space. Generally, the goal is to find the covering code with the minimum size codebook. While most…
A code is called solid if, roughly speaking, any correctly-transmitted codeword in an arbitrarily corrupted string of codewords can still be decoded correctly and unambiguously. So-called variable-length solid codes, in which codewords may…
One peculiarity with deletion-correcting codes is that perfect $t$-deletion-correcting codes of the same length over the same alphabet can have different numbers of codewords, because the balls of radius $t$ with respect to the…
In this paper, we propose a new class of bit flipping algorithms for low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes over the binary symmetric channel (BSC). Compared to the regular (parallel or serial) bit flipping algorithms, the proposed…
We give a complete answer to the following basic question: "What is the maximal fraction of deletions or insertions tolerable by $q$-ary list-decodable codes with non-vanishing information rate?" This question has been open even for binary…
Best and Brouwer [Discrete Math. 17 (1977), 235-245] proved that triply-shortened and doubly-shortened binary Hamming codes (which have length $2^m-4$ and $2^m-3$, respectively) are optimal. Properties of such codes are here studied,…
Motivated by DNA based data storage system, we investigate the errors that occur when synthesizing DNA strands in parallel, where each strand is appended one nucleotide at a time by the machine according to a template supersequence. If…
This article shows that any type of binary data can be defined as a collection from codewords of variable length. This feature helps us to define an Injective and surjective function from the suggested codewords to the required codewords.…
Using the idea of interference alignment, Suh and Ramchandran constructed a class of minimum-storage regenerating codes which can repair one systematic or one parity-check node with optimal repair bandwidth. With the same code structure, we…
Constructing Reed-Solomon (RS) codes that can correct insertion and deletion (ins-del) errors has been the focus of several recent studies. However, efficient decoding algorithms for such codes have received less attention and remain a…
In this work, we study linear error-correcting codes against adversarial insertion-deletion (indel) errors. While most constructions for the indel model are nonlinear, linear codes offer compact representations, efficient encoding, and…
Despite their significant advantages over competing technologies, nanopore sequencers are plagued by high error rates, due to physical characteristics of the nanopore and inherent noise in the biological processes. It is thus paramount not…
In this paper we define codes over some Octonion integers. We prove that in some conditions these codes can correct up to two errors for a transmitted vector and the code rate of the codes is grater than the code rate of the codes defined…
