The goal of the trace reconstruction problem is to recover a string $x\in\{0,1\}^n$ given many independent {\em traces} of $x$, where a trace is a subsequence obtained from deleting bits of $x$ independently with some given probability…
The deletion channel takes as input a bit string $\mathbf{x} \in \{0,1\}^n$, and deletes each bit independently with probability $q$, yielding a shorter string. The trace reconstruction problem is to recover an unknown string $\mathbf{x}$…
The insertion-deletion channel takes as input a bit string ${\bf x}\in\{0,1\}^{n}$, and outputs a string where bits have been deleted and inserted independently at random. The trace reconstruction problem is to recover $\bf x$ from many…

We introduce the following natural generalization of trace reconstruction, parameterized by a deletion probability $\delta \in (0,1)$ and length $n$: There is a length $n$ string of probabilities, $S=p_1,\ldots,p_n,$ and each "trace" is…

In the trace reconstruction problem, one seeks to reconstruct a binary string $s$ from a collection of traces, each of which is obtained by passing $s$ through a deletion channel. It is known that $\exp(\tilde O(n^{1/5}))$ traces suffice to…
The {\em insertion-deletion channel} takes as input a binary string $x \in\{0, 1\}^n$, and outputs a string $\widetilde{x}$ where some of the bits have been deleted and others inserted independently at random. In the {\em trace…
