Decoding

Decoding is a standalone C library licensed under the GPLv2. Its primary goal is to implement Guruswami–Sudan list decoding-related algorithms as efficiently as possible. Its secondary goal is to give an efficient tool for the implementation and benchmarking of general decoding algorithms. As of 2012/12/13, Decoding provides a working list decoding algorithm, but there is no unique decoding algorithm (though this can be emulated by list-decoding up to half the minimum distance). The library is being still under development, and more algorithms will be added. Decoding was presented at the 2012 International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation.
