Abstract:We consider the problem Minimum Error Correction (MEC). A MEC instance is an n × m matrix M with entries from {0, 1, −}. Feasible solutions are composed of two binary m-bit strings, together with an assignment of each row of M to one of the two strings. The objective is to minimize the number of mismatches (errors) where the row has a value that differs from the assigned solution string. The symbol "−" is a wildcard that matches both 0 and 1. A MEC instance is gapless, if in each row of M all binary entries ar… Show more
