A distributed lossy compression network with $L$ encoders and a decoder is considered. Each encoder observes a source and sends a compressed version to the decoder. The decoder produces a joint reconstruction of target signals with the mean…

In coding theory, handling errors that occur when symbols are inserted or deleted from a transmitted message is a long-standing challenge. Optimising redundancy for insertion and deletion channels remains a key open problem with significant…

Several types of AL-FEC (Application-Level FEC) codes for the Packet Erasure Channel exist. Random Linear Codes (RLC), where redundancy packets consist of random linear combinations of source packets over a certain finite field, are a…

Tensor codes are a generalisation of matrix codes. Such codes are defined as subspaces of order-r tensors for which the ambient space is endowed with the tensor-rank as a metric. A class of these codes was introduced by Roth, who also…

We study relationships between worst-case and random-noise properties of error correcting codes. More concretely, we consider connections between minimum distance, list decoding radius, and block error probability on noisy channels. A…

Restricted Syndrome Decoding (ResSD) is a variant of linear code decoding problem where each of the error's entries must belong to a fixed small set of values. This problem underlies the security of CROSS, a post-quantum signature scheme…

We study coding schemes for error correction in interactive communications. Such interactive coding schemes simulate any $n$-round interactive protocol using $N$ rounds over an adversarial channel that corrupts up to $\rho N$ transmissions.…

An encoder wishes to minimize the bit rate necessary to guarantee that a decoder is able to calculate a symbol-wise function of a sequence available only at the encoder and a sequence that can be measured only at the decoder. This classical…

Due to the short and bursty incoming messages, channel access activities in a wireless random access system are often fractional. The lack of frequent data support consequently makes it difficult for the receiver to estimate and track the…

We develop an approach through geometric functional analysis to error correcting codes and to reconstruction of signals from few linear measurements. An error correcting code encodes an n-letter word x into an m-letter word y in such a way…

Communication in poor network environment is always a difficult problem, since troubles such as bit errors and packet loss may often occur. It is generally believed that it is impossible to transmit data both accurately and efficiently in…

We formulate a model for intermittent communication that can capture bursty transmissions or a sporadically available channel, where in either case the receiver does not know a priori when the transmissions will occur. Focusing on the…
