'Earl T. Campbell'] Large-scale quantum computers have the potential to hold computational capabilities beyond conventional computers. However, the physical qubits are prone to noise which must be corrected in order to perform fault-tolerant quantum computations. Quantum Error Correction (QEC) provides the path for…

Polar codes are recursive general concatenated codes. This property motivates a recursive formalization of the known decoding algorithms: Successive Cancellation, Successive Cancellation with Lists and Belief Propagation. Using such description allows an easy development of these algorithms for arbitrary polarizing…

'Jun Wang'] Abstract—Recently, a parallel decoding framework of G N coset codes was proposed. High throughput is achieved by decoding the independent component polar codes in parallel . Various algorithms can be employed to decode these componen t codes, enabling a flexible throughput-performance tradeoff. In this…

DNA-based data storage is a promising solution to the challenges of large-scale data storage. However, the low throughput of the mainstream inkjet-based DNA synthesis method has hindered its widespread adoption. In contrast, high-throughput electrochemical synthesis provides higher throughput but with more nucleotide…

As high-speed big-data communications impose new requirements on storage latency, low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes have become a widely used technology in flash-memory channels. However, the iterative LDPC decoding algorithm faces a high decoding latency problem due to its mechanism based on iterative message…

—In this paper, we propose a parallel block-based Viterbi decoder (PBVD) on the graphic processing unit (GPU) platform for the decoding of convolutional codes. The decoding procedure is simplified and parallelized, and the characteristic of the trellis is exploited to reduce the metric computation. Based on the compute…

Weighted belief propagation (WBP) for the decoding of linear block codes is considered. In WBP, the Tanner graph of the code is unrolled with respect to the iterations of the belief propagation decoder. Then, weights are assigned to the edges of the resulting recurrent network and optimized offline using a training…

Embedded systems typically operate in harsh environments, such as where there is external shock, insufficient power, or an obsolete sensor after the replacement cycle. Despite these harsh environments, embedded systems require data integrity for accurate operation. Unintended data changes can cause a serious error in…

Entropy coding is essential to data compression, image and video coding, etc. The Range variant of Asymmetric Numeral Systems (rANS) is a modern entropy coder, featuring superior speed and compression rate. As rANS is not designed for parallel execution, the conventional approach to parallel rANS partitions the input…

'Robert Wille' 'Joschka Roffe'] Quantum low-density parity-check codes are a promising candidate for fault-tolerant quantum computing with considerably reduced overhead compared to the surface code. However, the lack of a practical decoding algorithm remains a barrier to their implementation. In this work, we introduce…

By exploiting the rich automorphisms of Reed-Muller (RM) codes, the recently developed automorphism ensemble (AE) successive cancellation (SC) decoder achieves a near-maximum-likelihood (ML) performance for short block lengths. However, the appealing performance of AE-SC decoding arises from the diversity gain that…

—Motivated by applications to digital audio broadcasting (DAB) systems, we study the a-posteriori probabilities (APPs) of the coded and information bits of the serial concatenation of multiple convolutional codewords. The main result of this paper is a proof that the APPs of the input bits do not change when…

—Video compression systems must support increasing bandwidth and data throughput at low cost and power, and can be limited by entropy coding bottlenecks. Efficiency can be greatly improved by parallelizing coding, which can be done at much larger scales with new neural-based codecs, but with some compression loss…

As nanopore technology reaches ever higher throughput and accuracy, it becomes an increasingly viable candidate for reading out DNA data storage. Nanopore sequencing offers considerable flexibility by allowing long reads, real-time signal analysis, and the ability to read both DNA and RNA. We need flexible and…

Background: Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes are more error-resistant than other forward error-correcting codes. Existing circuits give high power dissipation, less speed, and more occupying area. This work aimed to propose a better design and performance circuit, even in the presence of noise in the channel.…

The biochemical processes underlying DNA data storage, including synthesis, amplification, and sequencing, are inherently noisy. Consequently, base-level insertion, deletion, and substitution (IDS) errors, as well as sequence-level dropouts, occur and pose major challenges for reliable data retrieval. Here we introduce…

Serial and parallel processing in visual search have been long debated in psychology but the processing mechanism remains an open issue. Serial processing allows only one object at a time to be processed, whereas parallel processing assumes that various objects are processed simultaneously. Here we present novel neural…

The FASTQ file format is the lingua franca of primary data distribution and processing across most of bioinformatics. Over time, the compression, storage, transmission, and decompression of gzip compressed fastq.gz files has become a substantial scalability bottleneck in the modern world of fast and massively parallel…

An unconventional encoding scheme called concurrent coding, has recently been demonstrated and shown to offer interesting features and benefits in comparison to conventional techniques, e.g. robustness against burst errors and improved efficiency of transmitted power. This concept has been demonstrated for the first…

Durbin’s positional Burrows-Wheeler transform (PBWT) enables algorithms with the optimal time complexity of O(MN) for reporting all vs all haplotype matches in a population panel with M haplotypes and N variant sites. However, even this efficiency may still be too slow when the number of haplotypes reaches millions. To…

Evaluation of noncovalent electrostatic interactions is the dominant bottleneck in classical molecular dynamics simulations, and evaluation of Coulombic matrix elements similarly limits quantum mechanical self consistent field calculations. These difficulties are a result of the Coulomb operator’s slow decay, which…
