HDPCC Workshop 2010 on Linear Programming and Message-Passing Approaches to High-Density Parity-Check Codes and High-Density Graphical Models

HDPCC Workshop 2010 on Linear Programming and Message-Passing Approaches to High-Density Parity-Check Codes and High-Density Graphical Models
The main idea of this workshop is to bring together people interested in the algorithmic aspects (in particular linear programming, message passing, etc.) and performance analysis aspects (stopping sets, near-codewords, pseudo-codewords, etc.) of high-density parity-check codes and high-density graphical models. As such, this workshop will provide an informal environment for a fruitful information exchange with talks and discussion sessions.

We strongly believe that promoting these topics in our community is important and would lead to concentrated efforts on some of the challenging problems currently under investigation. Hopefully, this will for example lead to almost-optimal decoding of relatively "big" (block size of up to many hundreds of bits) high-density parity-check codes with practical complexity, as well as to a deeper understanding of linear-programming- / message-passing-based processing of high-density graphical models in general.

The Organizers:

Yair Be'ery (Tel Aviv University)
Misha Chertkov (Los Alamos National Laboratory)
Stefan Ruzika (Technical University Kaiserslautern)
Pascal Vontobel (Hewlett-Packard Laboratories Palo Alto)
