In this paper an interpolation-based decoding algorithm to decode Gabidulin codes, transmitted through a finely restricted channel, is proposed. The algorithm is able to decode rank errors beyond half the minimum distance by one unit. Also…
In this paper, we propose an efficient two-stage decoding algorithm for non-adaptive Group Testing (GT) with general correlated prior statistics. The proposed solution can be applied to any correlated statistical prior represented in…
For some $\epsilon > 10^{-36}$ we give a randomized $3/2-\epsilon$ approximation algorithm for metric TSP.
Given a graph $G$, and terminal vertices $s$ and $t$, the TRACKING PATHS problem asks to compute a minimum number of vertices to be marked as trackers, such that the sequence of trackers encountered in each s-t path is unique. TRACKING…
This work derives extremal tail bounds for the Gaussian trace estimator applied to a real symmetric matrix. We define a partial ordering on the eigenvalues, so that when a matrix has greater spectrum under this ordering, its estimator will…
A reduced complexity algorithm is presented for computing the log-likelihood ratios arising in the successive cancellation decoder for polar codes with large kernels of arbitrary dimension. The proposed algorithm exploits recursive trellis…
We study the theoretical and practical aspects of computing braids described by approximate descriptions of paths in the plane. Exact algorithms rely on the lexicographic ordering of the points in the plane, which is unstable under…
Recursive decoding techniques are considered for Reed-Muller (RM) codes of growing length $n$ and fixed order $r.$ An algorithm is designed that has complexity of order $n\log n$ and corrects most error patterns of weight up to…
This paper presents new results for the (partial) maximum a posteriori (MAP) problem in Bayesian networks, which is the problem of querying the most probable state configuration of some of the network variables given evidence. First, it is…
Existing planar map encodings neglect maps with loops. The presented scheme encodes any connected planar map in 4 bits/edge. Encoding and decoding time is O(edges). Implicit face/edge/vertex orderings and canonical encodings are discussed.
When a neural network (NN) is used to decode a polar code, its training complexity scales exponentially as the code block size (or to be precise, as a number of message bits) increases. Therefore, existing solutions that use a neural…
We consider recursive decoding for Reed-Muller (RM) codes and their subcodes. Two new recursive techniques are described. We analyze asymptotic properties of these algorithms and show that they substantially outperform other decoding…
We explore the use of higher-order tail area approximations for Bayesian simulation. These approximations give rise to an alternative simulation scheme to MCMC for Bayesian computation of marginal posterior distributions for a scalar…
Among various variants of the traveling salesman problem, the s-t-path graph TSP has the special feature that we know the exact integrality ratio, 3/2, and an approximation algorithm matching this ratio. In this paper, we go below this…
We consider the matching augmentation problem (MAP), where a matching of a graph needs to be extended into a $2$-edge-connected spanning subgraph by adding the minimum number of edges to it. We present a polynomial-time algorithm with an…
A complexity-adaptive tree search algorithm is proposed for $\boldsymbol{G}_N$-coset codes that implements maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding by using a successive decoding schedule. The average complexity is close to that of the successive…
A new search method for large polarization kernels is proposed. The algorithm produces a kernel with given partial distances by employing depth-first search combined with some methods which reduce the search space. Using the proposed…
Matched decoding is a technique that enables the efficient maximum-likelihood sequence estimation of convolutionally encoded PAM-transmission over ISI-channels. Recently, we have shown that the super-trellis of encoder and channel can be…
We present a novel iterative decoding algorithm for Reed-Muller (RM) codes, which takes advantage of a graph representation of the code. Vertices of the considered graph correspond to codewords, with two vertices being connected by an edge…
Spinal codes are a type of capacity-achieving rateless codes that have been proved to approach the Shannon capacity over the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel and the binary symmetric channel (BSC). In this paper, we aim to…
