Abstract

Error-correcting codes are used to partially or completely correct errors as much as possible, while ensuring high transmission speeds. Several machine learning models such as logistic regression and decision tree have been applied to correct transmission errors. Among the most powerful machine learning techniques are aggregation methods which have yielded to excellent results in many areas of research. It is this excellence that has prompted us to consider their application for the hard decoding problem. In this sense, we have successfully designed, tested and validated our proposed EL-BoostDec decoder (hard decision decoder based on ensemble learning-boosting technique) which is based on computing of the syndrome of the received word and on using ensemble learning techniques to find the corresponding corrigible error. The obtained results with EL-BoostDec are very encouraging in terms of the binary error rate (BER) that it offers. Practically EL-BoostDec has succeed to correct 100% of errors that have weights less than or equal to the correction capability of studied codes. The comparison of EL-BoostDec with many competitors proves its power. A study of parameters which impact on EL-BoostDec performances has been established to obtain a good BER with minimum run time complexity.

Abstract

The decoding of error-correcting codes (ECCs) is a critical aspect of communication systems, yet traditional decoding techniques can often be computationally demanding or ineffective for certain codes, necessitating innovative approaches. In this study, we introduce a hybrid approach that combines machine learning and automorphism techniques to optimize the decoding process. Specifically, we train multilayer perceptron (MLP) models to learn the mapping between error syndromes and their corresponding errors. While these models exhibit robust learning capabilities, their performance sometimes does not reach 100%. To mitigate this limitation, we exploit the automorphism group of the code—a set of structure-preserving transformations—to convert the errors that the MLP struggles to decode into ones it can process more effectively. We use a minimum number of p permutations, pre-calculating and storing all possible automorphisms to ensure computational efficiency. Our experimental results reveal that this hybrid approach substantially enhances the decoding performance of the MLP model, presenting a promising avenue for decoding ECCs. Importantly, this approach is not limited to MLP models and can be applied to any machine learning model with a learning score less than 100%, broadening its applicability and impact. By integrating machine learning with traditional algebraic coding theory, we propose a new paradigm that holds the potential to revolutionize the design of decoding systems, making them more efficient and effective.
