We show that any q-ary code with sufficiently good distance can be randomly punctured to obtain, with high probability, a code that is list decodable up to radius $1 - 1/q - \epsilon$ with near-optimal rate and list sizes. Our results imply…

BiD codes, which are a new family of algebraic codes of length $3^m$, achieve the erasure channel capacity under bit-MAP decoding and offer asymptotically larger minimum distance than Reed-Muller (RM) codes. In this paper we propose fast…

The generator matrices of polar codes and Reed-Muller codes are obtained by selecting rows from the Kronecker product of a lower-triangular binary square matrix. For polar codes, the selection is based on the Bhattacharyya parameter of the…

Constructing a polar code is all about selecting a subset of rows from a Kronecker power of $[^1_1{}^0_1]$. It is known that, under successive cancellation decoder, some rows are Pareto-better than the other. For instance, whenever a user…

For many compiled languages, source-level types are erased very early in the compilation process. As a result, further compiler passes may convert type-safe source into type-unsafe machine code. Type-unsafe idioms in the original source and…

Decoding sequences that stem from multiple transmissions of a codeword over an insertion, deletion, and substitution channel is a critical component of efficient deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) data storage systems. In this paper, we consider a…

Given a sequence $s_1$ of $n$ letters drawn i.i.d. from an alphabet of size $\sigma$ and a mutated substring $s_2$ of length $m < n$, we often want to recover the mutation history that generated $s_2$ from $s_1$. Modern sequence aligners…

In this paper we study spread codes: a family of constant-dimension codes for random linear network coding. In other words, the codewords are full-rank matrices of size (k x n) with entries in a finite field F_q. Spread codes are a family…

This paper introduces the Reed Muller Sieve, a deterministic measurement matrix for compressed sensing. The columns of this matrix are obtained by exponentiating codewords in the quaternary second order Reed Muller code of length $N$. For…

The analysis of the decoding failure rate of the bit-flipping algorithm has received increasing attention. For a binary linear code we consider the minimum number of rows in a parity-check matrix such that the bit-flipping algorithm is able…

We introduce a new approach to proving that a sequence of deterministic linear codes achieves capacity on an erasure channel under maximum a posteriori decoding. Rather than relying on the precise structure of the codes our method exploits…

Reproducibility is essential to reliable scientific discovery in high-throughput experiments. In this work we propose a unified approach to measure the reproducibility of findings identified from replicate experiments and identify putative…

We consider weighted Reed-Muller codes over point ensemble $S_1 \times...\times S_m$ where $S_i$ needs not be of the same size as $S_j$. For $m = 2$ we determine optimal weights and analyze in detail what is the impact of the ratio…

Universal compression of patterns of sequences generated by independently identically distributed (i.i.d.) sources with unknown, possibly large, alphabets is investigated. A pattern is a sequence of indices that contains all consecutive…

We consider the problem of approximately reconstructing a partially-observed, approximately low-rank matrix. This problem has received much attention lately, mostly using the trace-norm as a surrogate to the rank. Here we study low-rank…

Real world scenarios can be captured with lifted probability distributions. However, distributions are usually encoded in a table or list, requiring an exponential number of values. Hence, we propose a method for extracting first-order…
