SUMMARY:Binary Interactive Codes with Erasure Resilience > 1/2
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Bikshan Chatterjee (TIFR)\n\nAbstract: \nCoding for In
 teractive Communication" is the study of making interactive protocols resi
 lient to errors. But we can ask the following question: what if the origin
 al protocol was only sending a single message from Alice to Bob ? Can usin
 g interaction (allowing Bob to send noisy feedback) help them achieve high
 er error-resilience than what is possible with error correcting codes ?\nW
 e will see a binary interactive protocol achieving erasure resilience 6/11
  (greater than 1/2 which is the plotkin bound barrier for erasure resilien
 ce using normal error correcting codes).\n \nThe talk will be based on th
 e paper "Interactive Error Correcting Codes Over Binary Erasure Channels R
 esilient to > 1/2  Adversarial Corruption" by Meghal Gupta\, Yael Tauman 
 Kalai and Rachel Yun Zhang. \nReference: https://arxiv.org/abs/2111.04181
