We address the problem of decoding Gabidulin codes beyond their unique error-correction radius. The complexity of this problem is of importance to assess the security of some rank-metric code-based cryptosystems. We propose an approach that…
A binary 1-error-correcting code can always be embedded in a 1-perfect code of some larger length
This paper presents a simple approach to evaluate the performance bound at very low bit-error-rate (BER) range for binary pseudo-product codes and true-product codes. Moreover it introduces a super-product BCH code that can achieve…
Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) codes have been intensively investigated. Even so, there is only a little known about primitive BCH codes, let alone non-primitive ones. In this paper, let $q>2$ be a prime power, the dimension of a family…
In a recent paper~\cite{paper2}, we proposed the concept of optimal error bounds for an iterative process, which allows us to obtain the convergence result of the iterative sequence to the common fixed point of the nonexpansive mappings in…
An efficient Bayesian technique for estimation problems in fundamental stellar astronomy is tested on simulated data for a binary observed both astrometrically and spectroscopically. Posterior distributions are computed for the components'…
The aim of this short note is to fill in a gap in our earlier paper [16] on 2BSDEs with reflections, and to explain how to correct the subsequent results in the second paper [15]. We also provide more insight on the properties of 2RBSDEs,…
In recent years, several classes of codes are introduced to provide some fault-tolerance and guarantee system reliability in distributed storage systems, among which locally repairable codes (LRCs for short) play an important role. However,…
This paper develops a bias correction scheme for a multivariate normal model under a general parameterization. In the model, the mean vector and the covariance matrix share the same parameters. It includes many important regression models…
A new lower bound on the minimum distance of q-ary cyclic codes is proposed. This bound improves upon the Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) bound and, for some codes, upon the Hartmann-Tzeng (HT) bound. Several Boston bounds are special…
In this paper, we introduce and investigate the neighborhood of binary self-dual codes. We prove that there is no better Type I code than the best Type II code of the same length. Further, we give some new necessary conditions for the…
The maximum-likelihood decoding problem is known to be NP-hard for general linear and Reed-Solomon codes. In this paper, we introduce the notion of A-covered codes, that is, codes that can be decoded through a polynomial time algorithm A…
The aim of this article is to give lower bounds on the parameters of algebraic geometric error-correcting codes constructed from projective bundles over Deligne--Lusztig surfaces. The methods based on an intensive use of the intersection…
Locally repairable codes (LRC) have recently been a subject of intense research due to theoretical appeal and their application in distributed storage systems. In an LRC, any coordinate of a codeword can be recovered by accessing only few…
We establish a complete classification of binary group codes with complementary duals for a finite group and explicitly determine the number of linear complementary dual (LCD) cyclic group codes by using cyclotomic cosets. The dimension and…
We study the list-decoding problem of alternant codes, with the notable case of classical Goppa codes. The major consideration here is to take into account the size of the alphabet, which shows great influence on the list-decoding radius.…
Polar codes are a family of capacity-achieving codes that have explicit and low-complexity construction, encoding, and decoding algorithms. Decoding of polar codes is based on the successive-cancellation decoder, which decodes in a bit-…
We use a simple construction called `recursive subproducts' (that is known to yield good codes of lengths $n^m$, $n \geq 3$) to identify a family of codes sandwiched between first-order and second-order Reed-Muller (RM) codes. These codes…
We establish fundamental bounds on subwavelength resolution for the radar ranging problem, ``super radar''. Information theoretical metrics are applied to probe the resolution limits for the case of both direct electric field measurement…
Let $A$ be a positive operator on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}.$ We present inequalities concerning upper and lower bounds for $A$-numerical radius of operators, which improve on and generalize the existing ones, studied recently in…
