Marker code is an effective coding scheme to protect data from insertions and deletions. It has potential applications in future storage systems, such as DNA storage and racetrack memory. When decoding marker codes, perfect channel state…
We revisit the idea of using deep neural networks for one-shot decoding of random and structured codes, such as polar codes. Although it is possible to achieve maximum a posteriori (MAP) bit error rate (BER) performance for both code…
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…
This paper considers a binary channel with deletions and insertions, where each input bit is transformed in one of the following ways: it is deleted with probability d, or an extra bit is added after it with probability i, or it is…
We study sequential coding of Markov sources under an error propagation constraint. An encoder sequentially compresses a sequence of vector-sources that are spatially i.i.d. but temporally correlated according to a first-order Markov…
We consider the problem of constructing binary codes to recover from $k$-bit deletions with efficient encoding/decoding, for a fixed $k$. The single deletion case is well understood, with the Varshamov-Tenengolts-Levenshtein code from 1965…
This work studies problems in data reconstruction, an important area with numerous applications. In particular, we examine the reconstruction of binary and non-binary sequences from synchronization (insertion/deletion-correcting) codes.…
We introduce the sum channel, a new channel model motivated by applications in distributed storage and DNA data storage. In the error-free case, it takes as input an $\ell$-row binary matrix and outputs an $(\ell+1)$-row matrix whose first…
This paper studies the problem of constructing codes correcting deletions in arrays. Under this model, it is assumed that an $n\times n$ array can experience deletions of rows and columns. These deletion errors are referred to as…
Construction of capacity achieving deletion correcting codes has been a baffling challenge for decades. A recent breakthrough by Brakensiek $et~al$., alongside novel applications in DNA storage, have reignited the interest in this…
We study the problem of retrieving data from a channel that breaks the input sequence into a set of unordered fragments of random lengths, which we refer to as the chop-and-shuffle channel. The length of each fragment follows a geometric…
In this paper, we investigate the problem of designing $(n, N; \mathcal{B})$-reconstruction codes for $N\in \{14,11,9,5\}$, where $\mathcal{B}$ is the single-deletion single-substitution ball function that maps a sequence to the set of all…
We consider the problem of constructing codes that can correct $\delta$ deletions occurring in an arbitrary binary string of length $n$ bits. Varshamov-Tenengolts (VT) codes, dating back to 1965, are zero-error single deletion $(\delta=1)$…
Similar to existing codes, puncturing and shortening are two general ways to obtain an arbitrary code length and code rate for polar codes. When some of the coded bits are punctured or shortened, it is equivalent to a situation in which the…
Transmit a codeword $x$, that belongs to an $(\ell-1)$-deletion-correcting code of length $n$, over a $t$-deletion channel for some $1\le \ell\le t<n$. Levenshtein, in 2001, proposed the problem of determining $N(n,\ell,t)+1$, the minimum…
Error correction codes are a crucial part of the physical communication layer, ensuring the reliable transfer of data over noisy channels. The design of optimal linear block codes capable of being efficiently decoded is of major concern,…
The traditional SegNet architecture commonly encounters significant information loss during the sampling process, which detrimentally affects its accuracy in image semantic segmentation tasks. To counter this challenge, we introduce an…
Single encoder-decoder methodologies for semantic segmentation are reaching their peak in terms of segmentation quality and efficiency per number of layers. To address these limitations, we propose a new architecture based on a decoder…
The sequence reconstruction problem for insertion/deletion channels has attracted significant attention owing to their applications recently in some emerging data storage systems, such as racetrack memories, DNA-based data storage. Our goal…
Variable-length splittable codes are derived from encoding sequences of ordered integer pairs, where one of the pair's components is upper bounded by some constant, and the other one is any positive integer. Each pair is encoded by the…
