So I want to work on this summer project to correct errors in a message transmission using Hamming Code, but I cannot figure out how it really works. I've read many articles online, but I don't really understand the algorithm. Can anybody explain it in simple terms? Thanks. ...

Algorithms: data binarization

I have a huge dataset with words word_i and weights weight[i,j], where weight is the "connection strength" between words. I'd like to binarize this data, but I want to know if there is any existing algorithm to make binary code of each word in such a way that the Hamming distance between the codes of the words correlates with this weig...

Hello All Can I just say from the outset that this isn't a homework question as I'm way to old for that. But is related to an open source radio decoder project I'm working on .. http://github.com/IanWraith/DMRDecode Part of the radio protocol I'm interested uses a Hamming (7,4,3) code to protect 4 bits in a particular part of a data ...
