Research Abstract |
We have introduced samplable additive-error channels, and studied the possibilities and limitations of error correction in the channels. "Samplable" means that the errors are efficiently computable, and "additive" means that the errors are added to input codewords without the knowledge of the code or the codewords. If samplable distributions form linear subspaces, we can correct the errors by linear codes. In the situations relativized by oracles, there are samplable errors with low entropy for which no efficient syndrome decoding exists. If samplable distributions are of small-bias, there is a relation between the magnitude of the bias and the information rate on which the errors are correctable.
