Synchronization strings and codes for insertions and deletions—A survey

B Haeupler, A Shahrasbi - IEEE Transactions on Information …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Already in the 1960s, Levenshtein and others studied error-correcting codes that protect
against synchronization errors, such as symbol insertions and deletions. However, despite …

Reed–Muller codes: Theory and algorithms

E Abbe, A Shpilka, M Ye - IEEE Transactions on Information …, 2020 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Reed-Muller (RM) codes are among the oldest, simplest and perhaps most ubiquitous family
of codes. They are used in many areas of coding theory in both electrical engineering and …

A proof that Reed-Muller codes achieve Shannon capacity on symmetric channels

E Abbe, C Sandon - 2023 IEEE 64th Annual Symposium on …, 2023 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In 1948, Shannon used a probabilistic argument to show that there exist codes achieving a
maximal rate defined by the channel capacity. In 1954, Muller and Reed introduced a simple …

Construction of polar codes with sublinear complexity

M Mondelli, SH Hassani… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2018 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Consider the problem of constructing a polar code of block length for a given transmission
channel. Previous approaches require one to compute the reliability of the synthetic …

Optimally resilient codes for list-decoding from insertions and deletions

V Guruswami, B Haeupler, A Shahrasbi - Proceedings of the 52nd …, 2020 - dl.acm.org
We give a complete answer to the following basic question:” What is the maximal fraction of
deletions or insertions tolerable by q-ary list-decodable codes with non-vanishing …

A survey on computational politics

EU Haq, T Braud, YD Kwon, P Hui - IEEE Access, 2020 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Computational Politics is the study of computational methods to analyze and moderate
users' behaviors related to political activities such as election campaign persuasion, political …

Reed-Muller codes polarize

E Abbe, M Ye - IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2020 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Reed-Muller (RM) codes were introduced in 1954 and have long been conjectured to
achieve Shannon's capacity on symmetric channels. The activity on this conjecture has …

A geometric model of opinion polarization

J Hązła, Y Jin, E Mossel… - … of Operations Research, 2024 - pubsonline.informs.org
We introduce a simple geometric model of opinion polarization. It is a model of political
persuasion as well as marketing and advertising, utilizing social values. It focuses on the …

Arikan meets Shannon: Polar codes with near-optimal convergence to channel capacity

V Guruswami, A Riazanov, M Ye - Proceedings of the 52nd Annual ACM …, 2020 - dl.acm.org
Let W be a binary-input memoryless symmetric (BMS) channel with Shannon capacity I (W)
and fix any α> 0. We construct, for any sufficiently small δ> 0, binary linear codes of block …
