The min-sum approximation is widely used in the decoding of polar codes. Although it is a numerical approximation, hardly any penalties are incurred in practice. We give a theoretical justification for this. We consider the common case of a…

This paper addresses the issue of design of low-rate sparse-graph codes with linear minimum distance in the blocklength. First, we define a necessary condition which needs to be satisfied when the linear minimum distance is to be ensured.…

This paper introduces an enhanced normalized min-sum decoder designed to address the performance and complexity challenges associated with developing parallelizable decoders for short BCH codes in high-throughput applications. The decoder…

This paper proposes two approaches for reducing the impact of the error floor phenomenon when decoding quantum low-density parity-check codes with belief propagation based algorithms. First, a low-complexity syndrome-based linear…

In decoding linear block codes, it was shown that noticeable reliability gains can be achieved by introducing learnable parameters to the Belief Propagation (BP) decoder. Despite the success of these methods, there are two key open…

For finite geometry low-density parity-check codes, heavy row and column weights in their parity check matrix make the decoding with even Min-Sum (MS) variants computationally expensive. To alleviate it, we present a class of hybrid schemes…

We investigate the problem of maintaining an encoded distributed storage system when some nodes contain adversarial errors. Using the error-correction capabilities that are built into the existing redundancy of the system, we propose a…

Heterogeneous cellular networks (HCN) with embedded small cells are considered, where multiple mobile users wish to download network content of different popularity. By caching data into the small-cell base stations (SBS), we will design…

We study the stability of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes under blockwise or bitwise maximum $\textit{a posteriori}$ (MAP) decoding, where transmission takes place over a binary-input memoryless output-symmetric channel. Our study…

Max-product Belief Propagation (BP) is a popular message-passing algorithm for computing a Maximum-A-Posteriori (MAP) assignment over a distribution represented by a Graphical Model (GM). It has been shown that BP can solve a number of…

Minimum weight distribution (MWD) is an important metric to calculate the first term of union bound called minimum weight union bound (MWUB). In this paper, we first prove the maximum likelihood (ML) performance approaches MWUB as…

Reed-Muller (RM) codes exhibit good performance under maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding due to their highly-symmetric structure. In this paper, we explore the question of whether the code symmetry of RM codes can also be exploited to achieve…

In a distributed storage systems (DSS) with $k$ systematic nodes, robustness against node failure is commonly provided by storing redundancy in a number of other nodes and performing repair mechanism to reproduce the content of the failed…

Many modern imaging applications can be modeled as compressed sensing linear inverse problems. When the measurement operator involved in the inverse problem is sufficiently random, denoising Scalable Message Passing (SMP) algorithms have a…

We investigate the properties of a Block Decomposition Method (BDM), which extends the power of a Coding Theorem Method (CTM) that approximates local estimations of algorithmic complexity based upon Solomonoff-Levin's theory of algorithmic…

We study linear codes that maximize minimum distance subject to arbitrary support constraints on the parity-check matrix. Such constraints arise naturally in the design of LDPC codes, locally repairable codes, and hardware-constrained…

Push-Sum-based decentralized learning enables optimization over directed communication networks, where information exchange may be asymmetric. While convergence properties of such methods are well understood, their finite-iteration…

This paper investigates the problem of finding an optimal nonbinary index assignment from (M) quantization levels of a maximum entropy scalar quantizer to (M)-PSK symbols transmitted over a symmetric memoryless channel with additive noise…

The Partitioning Min-Max Weighted Matching (PMMWM) problem is an NP-hard problem that combines the problem of partitioning a group of vertices of a bipartite graph into disjoint subsets with limited size and the classical Min-Max Weighted…

Despite the NP hardness of acquiring minimum distance $d_m$ for linear codes theoretically, in this paper we propose one experimental method of finding minimum-weight codewords, the weight of which is equal to $d_m$ for LDPC codes. One…
