Maximum-likelihood decoding of Reed-Solomon Codes is NP-hard
[article]
2004
arXiv
pre-print
In this paper, we prove that maximum-likelihood decoding is NP-hard for the family of Reed-Solomon codes. ...
Maximum-likelihood decoding is one of the central algorithmic problems in coding theory. It has been known for over 25 years that maximum-likelihood decoding of general linear codes is NP-hard. ...
It is particularly interesting that the only nontrivial family of codes for which we can now prove that maximum-likelihood decoding is NP-hard is the family of Reed-Solomon codes. ...

In this paper, we prove that maximum-likelihood decoding is NP-hard for the family of Reed-Solomon codes. Let q © 2 m and let £ q X denote the ring of univariate polynomials over £ q . ...
As discussed in Corollary 9, maximum-likelihood decoding of Reed-Solomon codes becomes hard when the number of errors is large -one less than the covering radius of the code. ...

Hard Problems of Algebraic Geometry Codes
2008
IEEE Transactions on Information Theory
The minimum distance is one of the most important combinatorial characterizations of a code. The maximum likelihood decoding problem is one of the most important algorithmic problems of a code. ...
In general, much less is known about the hardness of the specific classes of natural linear codes. In this paper, we show that both problems are NP-hard for algebraic geometry codes. ...
The only result of this kind known to date is the result of [7] on the NP-completeness of maximum likelihood decoding for generalized Reed-Solomon codes, where the sizes of the alphabets are exponential ...

New Set of Codes for the Maximum-Likelihood Decoding Problem
[article]
2010
arXiv
pre-print
The maximum-likelihood decoding problem is known to be NP-hard for general linear and Reed-Solomon codes. ...
For these codes, we show that the maximum-likelihood decoding problem is reachable in polynomial time in the code parameters. ...
However there may be quite a few of those codes as we exhibited nine binary BCH codes which are Wu-covered codes, of which, four constitute a new result and two can be decoded in time quasi-quadratic in ...

2008
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
The complexity of maximum likelihood decoding of the Reed-Solomon codes [q − 1, k]q is a well known open problem. ...
In particular, this resolves an open problem left in [4] , and rules out the possibility of a polynomial time algorithm for maximum likelihood decoding problem of Reed-Solomon codes of any rate under a ...
The maximum likelihood decoding of a generalized Reed-Solomon [n, k] q code is known to be NP-complete [6] . ...

On Deciding Deep Holes of Reed-Solomon Codes
[article]
2005
arXiv
pre-print
For generalized Reed-Solomon codes, it has been proved GuruswamiVa05 that the problem of determining if a received word is a deep hole is co-NP-complete. ...
We then consider the problem for standard Reed-Solomon codes, i.e. the evaluation set consists of all the nonzero elements in the field. ...
This shows that maximum likelihood decoding of Reed-Solomon codes, as well as the bounded distance decoding at radius n − k − 1, is at least as hard as deciding deepholes. ...
