Given n subspaces of a finite-dimensional vector space over a fixed finite field $\mathbb F$, we wish to find a linear layout $V_1,V_2,\ldots,V_n$ of the subspaces such that $\dim((V_1+V_2+\cdots+V_i) \cap (V_{i+1}+\cdots+V_n))\le k$ for…

In this paper, soft-decision (SD) decoders of permutation trellis code (PTC) with $M$-ary frequency shift keying are designed using three optimization algorithms and presented in four decoding schemes. In a concatenated code such as PTC,…

In this work, we present an optimization framework for sparse variable-length stop-feedback (VLSF) codes based on a saddlepoint approximation, which jointly optimizes the decoding configuration parameters. Thanks to the analytical…

This work presents novel algorithms for learning Bayesian network structures with bounded treewidth. Both exact and approximate methods are developed. The exact method combines mixed-integer linear programming formulations for structure…

Channel and frequency offset estimation is a classic topic with a large body of prior work using mainly maximum likelihood (ML) approach together with Cram\'er-Rao Lower bounds (CRLB) analysis. We provide the maximum a posteriori (MAP)…

We consider joint detection of co-channel signals---specifically, signals which do not possess a natural separability due to, for example, the multiple access technique or the use of multiple antennas. Iterative joint detection and decoding…

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…

A deep-learning-aided successive-cancellation list (DL-SCL) decoding algorithm for polar codes is introduced with deep-learning-aided successive-cancellation (DL-SC) decoding being a specific case of it. The DL-SCL decoder works by allowing…

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…

In this paper, we study systematic Luby Transform (SLT) codes over additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. We introduce the encoding scheme of SLT codes and give the bipartite graph for iterative belief propagation (BP) decoding…

We give an algorithm that, given an $n$-vertex graph $G$ and an integer $k$, in time $2^{O(k)} n$ either outputs a tree decomposition of $G$ of width at most $2k + 1$ or determines that the treewidth of $G$ is larger than $k$. This is the…

We study the problem of supervised learning a metric space under discriminative constraints. Given a universe $X$ and sets ${\cal S}, {\cal D}\subset {X \choose 2}$ of similar and dissimilar pairs, we seek to find a mapping $f:X\to Y$, into…

This paper presents our low-latency Polar code encoders and decoders developed for the 2025 International Symposium on Topics in Coding (ISTC 2025) contest, which challenges participants to implement the fastest possible channel code…

The multicast capacity of the Gaussian two-hop relay network with one source, $N$ relays, and $L$ destinations is studied. It is shown that a careful modification of the partial decode--forward coding scheme, whereby the relays cooperate…

We propose a new class of efficient decoding algorithms for Reed-Muller (RM) codes over binary-input memoryless channels. The algorithms are based on projecting the code on its cosets, recursively decoding the projected codes (which are…

We develop a framework for linear-programming (LP) decoding of non-binary linear codes over rings. We prove that the resulting LP decoder has the `maximum likelihood certificate' property, and we show that the decoder output is the lowest…

A matching algorithm for the identification of backbones in percolation problems is introduced. Using this procedure, percolation backbones are studied in two- to five-dimensional systems containing 1.7x10^7 sites, two orders of magnitude…

We use semidefinite programming to bound the fractional cut-cover parameter of graphs in association schemes in terms of their smallest eigenvalue. We also extend the equality cases of a primal-dual inequality involving the…

We consider a Two-Bar Charts Packing Problem (2-BCPP), in which it is necessary to pack two-bar charts (2-BCs) in a unit-height strip of minimum length. The problem is a generalization of the Bin Packing Problem (BPP). Earlier, we proposed…

We present an algorithm for error correction in topological codes that exploits modern machine learning techniques. Our decoder is constructed from a stochastic neural network called a Boltzmann machine, of the type extensively used in deep…
