Connection With Epsilon-balanced Error-correcting Codes

There is a close connection between -biased sets and -balanced linear error-correcting codes. A linear code of message length and block length is -balanced if the Hamming weight of every nonzero codeword is between and . Since is a linear code, its generator matrix is an -matrix over with .

Then it holds that a multiset is -biased if and only if the linear code, whose columns are exactly elements of, is -balanced.

Famous quotes containing the words connection with, connection and/or codes:

    ... instinct is the direct connection with truth.
    Laurette Taylor (1887–1946)

    Parents have railed against shelters near schools, but no one has made any connection between the crazed consumerism of our kids and their elders’ cold unconcern toward others. Maybe the homeless are not the only ones who need to spend time in these places to thaw out.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    ... until both employers’ and workers’ groups assume responsibility for chastising their own recalcitrant children, they can vainly bay the moon about “ignorant” and “unfair” public criticism. Moreover, their failure to impose voluntarily upon their own groups codes of decency and honor will result in more and more necessity for government control.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
