This paper offers a characterization of fundamental limits on the classification and reconstruction of high-dimensional signals from low-dimensional features, in the presence of side information. We consider a scenario where a decoder has…

Understanding the limits of list-decoding and list-recovery of Reed-Solomon (RS) codes is of prime interest in coding theory and has attracted a lot of attention in recent decades. However, the best possible parameters for these problems…

Reliability is essential for storing files in many applications of distributed storage systems. To maintain reliability, when a storage node fails, a new node should be regenerated by a repair process. Most of the previous results on the…

In this paper, we consider the setting of exact repair linear regenerating codes. Under this setting, we derive a new outer bound on the storage-repair-bandwidth trade-off for the case when $d = k = n -1$, where $(n, k, d)$ are parameters…

The {\em repair locality} of a distributed storage code is the maximum number of nodes that ever needs to be contacted during the repair of a failed node. Having small repair locality is desirable, since it is proportional to the number of…

We present error-correcting codes that achieve the information-theoretically best possible trade-off between the rate and error-correction radius. Specifically, for every $0 < R < 1$ and $\eps> 0$, we present an explicit construction of…

We address the problem of Compressed Sensing (CS) with side information. Namely, when reconstructing a target CS signal, we assume access to a similar signal. This additional knowledge, the side information, is integrated into CS via L1-L1…

Codes over rings, especially over Galois rings, have been extensively studied for nearly three decades due to their similarity to linear codes over finite fields. A distributed storage system uses a linear code to encode a large file across…

Partial maximum distance separable (PMDS) codes are a kind of erasure codes where the nodes are divided into multiple groups with each forming an MDS code with a smaller code length, thus they allow repairing a failed node with only a few…
