Short-length Reed--Muller codes under majority-logic decoding are of particular importance for efficient hardware implementations in real-time and embedded systems. This paper significantly improves Chen's two-step majority-logic decoding…
Tandem duplication is the process of inserting a copy of a segment of DNA adjacent to the original position. Motivated by applications that store data in living organisms, Jain et al. (2017) proposed the study of codes that correct tandem…
Distributed data storage systems are essential to deal with the need to store massive volumes of data. In order to make such a system fault-tolerant, some form of redundancy becomes crucial, incurring various overheads - most prominently in…
We propose coding techniques that limit the length of homopolymers runs, ensure the GC-content constraint, and are capable of correcting a single edit error in strands of nucleotides in DNA-based data storage systems. In particular, for…
We focus on erasure codes for distributed storage. The distributed storage setting imposes locality requirements because of easy repair demands on the decoder. We first establish the characterization of various locality properties in terms…
Motivated by modern network communication applications which require low latency, we study codes that correct erasures with low decoding delay. We provide a simple explicit construction that yields convolutional codes that can correct both…
Codes for rank modulation have been recently proposed as a means of protecting flash memory devices from errors. We study basic coding theoretic problems for such codes, representing them as subsets of the set of permutations of $n$…
We present error-correcting codes that achieve the information-theoretically best possible trade-off between the rate and error-correction radius. Specifically, for every $0 < R < 1$ and $\eps> 0$, we present an explicit construction of…
DNA-based storage is an emerging storage technology that provides high information density and long duration. Due to the physical constraints in the reading and writing processes, error correction in DNA storage poses several interesting…
We study the fundamental limits on the reliable storage of quantum information in lattices of qubits by deriving tradeoff bounds for approximate quantum error correcting codes. We introduce a notion of local approximate correctability and…
In this paper, we propose an encoding scheme for partitioned linear block codes (PLBC) which mask the stuck-at defects in memories. In addition, we derive an upper bound and the estimate of the probability that masking fails. Numerical…
This paper proves that any quantum t-deletion-correcting codes also correct a total of t insertion and deletion errors under a certain condition. Here, this condition is that a set of quantum states is defined as a quantum error-correcting…
Locally decodable codes (LDC's) are error-correcting codes that allow recovery of individual message indices by accessing only a constant number of codeword indices. For substitution errors, it is evident that LDC's exist -- Hadamard codes…
An error-erasure channel is a simple noise model that introduces both errors and erasures. While the two types of errors can be corrected simultaneously with error-correcting codes, it is also known that any linear code allows for first…
We present the first known efficient decoding algorithm for correcting multiple insertion-deletion errors in Helberg codes and their non-binary generalizations, extending a known algorithm for correcting multiple deletion errors.
Constructing Reed--Solomon (RS) codes that can correct insertions and deletions (insdel errors) has been considered in numerous recent works. For the special case of two-dimensional RS-codes, it is known [CST23] that an $[n,2]_q$ RS-code…
Reed-Muller codes encode an $m$-variate polynomial of degree $r$ by evaluating it on all points in $\{0,1\}^m$. We denote this code by $RM(m,r)$. The minimal distance of $RM(m,r)$ is $2^{m-r}$ and so it cannot correct more than half that…
We present the construction of a family of erasure correcting codes for distributed storage that achieve low repair bandwidth and complexity at the expense of a lower fault tolerance. The construction is based on two classes of codes, where…
In this work, we study a new model of defect memory cells, called partially stuck-at memory cells, which is motivated by the behavior of multi-level cells in non-volatile memories such as flash memories and phase change memories. If a cell…
We study deletion-correcting codes for an adversarial nanopore channel in which at most $t$ deletions may occur. We propose an explicit construction of $q$-ary codes of length $n$ for this channel with $2t\log_q n+\Theta(\log\log n)$…
