To facilitate applications in IoT, 5G, and beyond, there is an engineering need to enable high-rate, low-latency communications. Errors in physical channels typically arrive in clumps, but most decoders are designed assuming that channels…

Guessing Codeword Decoding (GCD) is a recently proposed soft-input forward error correction decoder for arbitrary binary linear codes. Inspired by recent proposals that leverage binary linear codebook structure to reduce the number of…

In this paper, we distinguish two guessing algorithms for decoding binary linear codes. One is the guessing noise decoding (GND) algorithm, and the other is the guessing codeword decoding (GCD) algorithm. We prove that the GCD is a maximum…

Guessing random additive noise decoding (GRAND) has received widespread attention recently, and among its variants, ordered reliability bits GRAND (ORBGRAND) is particularly attractive due to its efficient utilization of soft information…

We propose a massive parallel decoding GRAND framework. The framework introduces two novelties: 1. A likelihood function for $M$-QAM demodulated signals that effectively reduces the symbol error pattern space from $\mathcal{O}(5^{N/\log_2…

We study universal decoding over unknown discrete additive channels determined by a finite-state (unifilar) random process. Aiming at low-complexity decoders, we study variants of noise-guessing decoders that use estimators for the…

We establish that during the execution of any Guessing Random Additive Noise Decoding (GRAND) algorithm, an interpretable, useful measure of decoding confidence can be evaluated. This measure takes the form of a log-likelihood ratio (LLR)…

An additive noise channel is considered, in which the distribution of the noise is nonparametric and unknown. The problem of learning encoders and decoders based on noise samples is considered. For uncoded communication systems, the problem…

Hallucination mitigation remains a persistent challenge for large language models (LLMs), even as model scales grow. Existing approaches often rely on external knowledge sources, such as structured databases or knowledge graphs, accessed…

Speculative decoding has emerged as a promising technique to accelerate the inference of Large Language Models (LLMs) by employing a small language model to draft a hypothesis sequence, which is then validated by the LLM. The effectiveness…

A present challenge in wireless communications is the assurance of ultra-reliable and low-latency communication (URLLC). While the reliability aspect is well known to be improved by channel coding with long codewords, this usually implies…

In the classic wiretap model, Alice wishes to reliably communicate to Bob without being overheard by Eve who is eavesdropping over a degraded channel. Systems for achieving that physical layer security often rely on an error correction code…

Efficient and accurate decoding of quantum error-correcting codes is essential for fault-tolerant quantum computation, however, it is challenging due to the degeneracy of errors, the complex code topology, and the large space for logical…

We study the problem of semi-supervised learning on graphs, for which graph neural networks (GNNs) have been extensively explored. However, most existing GNNs inherently suffer from the limitations of over-smoothing, non-robustness, and…

Speculative decoding accelerates large language model (LLM) inference by using a lightweight draft model to propose tokens that are later verified by a stronger target model. While effective in centralized systems, its behavior in…
