In this work, we consider the problem of efficient decoding of codes from insertions and deletions. Most of the known efficient codes are codes with synchronization strings which allow one to reduce the problem of decoding insertions and…

Motivated by mutation processes occurring in in-vivo DNA-storage applications, a channel that mutates stored strings by duplicating substrings as well as substituting symbols is studied. Two models of such a channel are considered: one in…

We present many new results related to reliable (interactive) communication over insertion-deletion channels. Synchronization errors, such as insertions and deletions, strictly generalize the usual symbol corruption errors and are much…

The well-known trace reconstruction problem is the problem of inferring an unknown source string $x \in \{0,1\}^n$ from independent "traces", i.e. copies of $x$ that have been corrupted by a $\delta$-deletion channel which independently…

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…

DNA has immense potential as an emerging data storage medium. The principle of DNA storage is the conversion and flow of digital information between binary code stream, quaternary base, and actual DNA fragments. This process will inevitably…
