Reed-Muller codes are some of the oldest and most widely studied error-correcting codes, of interest for both their algebraic structure as well as their many algorithmic properties. A recent beautiful result of Saptharishi, Shpilka and Volk showed that for binary Reed-Muller codes of length $n$ and distance $d = O(1)$, one can correct $operatorname{polylog}(n)$ random errors in $operatorname{poly}(n)$ time (which is well beyond the worst-case error tolerance of $O(1)$). In this paper, we consider the problem of `syndrome decoding Reed-Muller codes from random errors. More specifically, given the $operatorname{polylog}(n)$-bit long syndrome vector of a codeword corrupted in $operatorname{polylog}(n)$ random coordinates, we would like to compute the locations of the codeword corruptions. This problem turns out to be equivalent to a basic question about computing tensor decomposition of random low-rank tensors over finite fields. Our main result is that syndrome decoding of Reed-Muller codes (and the equivalent tensor decomposition problem) can be solved efficiently, i.e., in $operatorname{polylog}(n)$ time. We give two algorithms for this problem: 1. The first algorithm is a finite field variant of a classical algorithm for tensor decomposition over real numbers due to Jennrich. This also gives an alternate proof for the main result of Saptharishi et al. 2. The second algorithm is obtained by implementing the steps of the Berlekamp-Welch-style decoding algorithm of Saptharishi et al. in sublinear-time. The main new ingredient is an algorithm for solving certain kinds of systems of polynomial equations.

We give a polynomial time algorithm to decode multivariate polynomial codes of degree $d$ up to half their minimum distance, when the evaluation points are an arbitrary product set $S^m$, for every $d < |S|$. Previously known algorithms can achieve t his only if the set $S$ has some very special algebraic structure, or if the degree $d$ is significantly smaller than $|S|$. We also give a near-linear time randomized algorithm, which is based on tools from list-decoding, to decode these codes from nearly half their minimum distance, provided $d < (1-epsilon)|S|$ for constant $epsilon > 0$. Our result gives an $m$-dimensional generalization of the well known decoding algorithms for Reed-Solomon codes, and can be viewed as giving an algorithmic version of the Schwartz-Zippel lemma.
Reed-Muller (RM) codes are among the oldest, simplest and perhaps most ubiquitous family of codes. They are used in many areas of coding theory in both electrical engineering and computer science. Yet, many of their important properties are still und er investigation. This paper covers some of the recent developments regarding the weight enumerator and the capacity-achieving properties of RM codes, as well as some of the algorithmic developments. In particular, the paper discusses the recent connections established between RM codes, thresholds of Boolean functions, polarization theory, hypercontractivity, and the techniques of approximating low weight codewords using lower degree polynomials. It then overviews some of the algorithms with performance guarantees, as well as some of the algorithms with state-of-the-art performances in practical regimes. Finally, the paper concludes with a few open problems.
This paper presents a novel successive factor-graph permutation (SFP) scheme that significantly improves the error-correction performance of Reed-Muller (RM) codes under successive-cancellation list (SCL) decoding. In particular, we perform maximum-l ikelihood decoding on the symmetry group of RM codes to carefully select a good factor-graph permutation on the fly. We further propose an SFP-aided fast SCL decoding that significantly reduces the decoding latency while preserving the error-correction performance of the code. The simulation results show that for the third and fourth order RM codes of length $256$, the proposed decoder reduces up to $85%$ of the memory consumption, $78%$ of the decoding latency, and more than $99%$ of the computational complexity of the state-of-the-art recursive projection-aggregation decoder at the frame error rate of $10^{-3}$.
In this paper we propose efficient decoding techniques to significantly improve the error-correction performance of fast successive-cancellation (FSC) and FSC list (FSCL) decoding algorithms for short low-order Reed-Muller (RM) codes. In particular, we first integrate Fast Hadamard Transform (FHT) into FSC (FHT-FSC) and FSCL (FHT-FSCL) decoding algorithms to optimally decode the first-order RM subcodes. We then utilize the rich permutation group of RM codes by independently running the FHT-FSC and the FHT-FSCL decoders on a list of random bit-index permutations of the codes. The simulation results show that the error-correction performance of the FHT-FSC decoders on a list of $L$ random code permutations outperforms that of the FSCL decoder with list size $L$, while requiring lower memory requirement and computational complexity for various configurations of the RM codes. In addition, when compared with the state-of-the-art recursive projection-aggregation (RPA) decoding, the permuted FHT-FSCL decoder can obtain a similar error probability for the RM codes of lengths $128$, $256$, and $512$ at various code rates, while requiring several orders of magnitude lower computational complexity.
A low-complexity tree search approach is presented that achieves the maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding performance of Reed-Muller (RM) codes. The proposed approach generates a bit-flipping tree that is traversed to find the ML decoding result by perfo rming successive-cancellation decoding after each node visit. A depth-first search (DFS) and a breadth-first search (BFS) scheme are developed and a log-likelihood-ratio-based bit-flipping metric is utilized to avoid redundant node visits in the tree. Several enhancements to the proposed algorithm are presented to further reduce the number of node visits. Simulation results confirm that the BFS scheme provides a lower average number of node visits than the existing tree search approach to decode RM codes.
