CSE 599i: Modern Coding Theory
What is the best way to encode data so that it can be recovered even if the encoding is partially corrupted? This is the central question of coding theory. The theory is used wherever data is stored or transmitted.
This class will cover the basics of the theory, and quickly transition into topics relevant to current research and practice. No background will be assumed. The class will be taught by myself and Sivakanth Gopi. Gopi has been applying ideas from coding theory to systems being developed by Microsoft.More information is available here:
