In this paper, we consider the recently introduced concept of \emph{function-correcting codes (FCCs) with data protection}, which provide a certain level of error protection for the data and a higher level of protection for a desired…

In this paper we study function-correcting codes, a new class of codes designed to protect the function evaluation of a message against errors. We show that FCCs are equivalent to irregular-distance codes, i.e., codes that obey some given…

We introduce function-correcting partition codes (FCPCs), which are a natural generalization of function-correcting codes (FCCs). An FCPC is defined directly on a partition of the message space, rather than on a specific target function. We…

Function-correcting codes with data protection simultaneously protect both the data and a function of the data at distinct error-correction levels. When the function receives strictly stronger protection than the data, such a code is called…
