On the Efficiency of Polar-Like Decoding for Symmetric Codes

The recently introduced polar codes constitute a breakthrough in coding theory due to their capacity-achieving property. This goes hand in hand with a quasilinear construction, encoding, and successive cancellation list decoding procedures based on the Plo ...

The Stability of Low-Density Parity-Check Codes and Some of its Consequences

Rüdiger Urbanke, Wei Liu

We study the stability of low-density parity-check codes under blockwise or bitwise maximum a posteriori decoding, where transmission takes place over a binary-input memoryless output-symmetric channel. Our study stems from the consideration of constructin ...

Constructing a provably adversarially-robust classifier from a high accuracy one

Rüdiger Urbanke

Modern machine learning models with very high accuracy have been shown to be vulnerable to small, adversarially chosen perturbations of the input. Given black-box access to a high-accuracy classifier f, we show how to construct a new classifier g that has ...

On the Universality of Low-Density Parity-Check Block Codes

Rüdiger Urbanke, Wei Liu

An important class of modern channel codes is the capacity-achieving sequences of low-density parity-check block codes. Such sequences are usually designed for the binary erasure channel and are decoded by iterative message-passing algorithms. In this pape ...

Displacement Convexity in Spatially Coupled Scalar Recursions

Rüdiger Urbanke, Nicolas Macris, Rafah El-Khatib

We introduce a technique for the analysis of general spatially coupled systems that are governed by scalar recursions. Such systems can be expressed in variational form in terms of a potential function. We show, under mild conditions, that the potential fu ...

Improved decoding of second-order Reed-Muller codes

Rüdiger Urbanke, Kirill Ivanov

In this paper, we consider low-complexity decoding of second-order Reed-Muller codes. A class of polynomial-time algorithms, based on the projections onto first-order codes, is studied. An old representative of this class, originally developed for binary s ...

Construction of Polar Codes With Sublinear Complexity

Rüdiger Urbanke, Seyed Hamed Hassani, Marco Mondelli

Consider the problem of constructing a polar code of block length N for a given transmission channel W. Previous approaches require one to compute the reliability of the N synthetic channels and then use only those that are sufficiently reliable. However, ...

Near-Optimal Finite-Length Scaling for Polar Codes Over Large Alphabets

Rüdiger Urbanke, Henry Pfister

For any prime power q, Mori and Tanaka introduced a family of q-ary polar codes based on the q x q Reed-Solomon polarization kernels. For transmission over a q-ary erasure channel, they also derived a closed-form recursion for the erasure probability of ea ...

Permutation-based Decoding of Reed-Muller Codes in Binary Erasure Channel

Rüdiger Urbanke, Kirill Ivanov

In this paper, we consider the problem of decoding Reed-Muller (RM) codes in binary erasure channel. We propose a novel algorithm, which exploits several techniques, such as list recursive (successive cancellation) decoding based on Plotkin decomposition, ...

A New Coding Paradigm for the Primitive Relay Channel

Rüdiger Urbanke, Seyed Hamed Hassani, Marco Mondelli

We consider the primitive relay channel, where the source sends a message to the relay and to the destination, and the relay helps the communication by transmitting an additional message to the destination via a separate channel. Two well-known coding tech ...
