  • Abstract
    A generalization of codes on regular bipartite graphs is given by a family of codes on hypergraphs. We derive the average weight distribution and estimate the minimum distance of codes in the random ensemble of hypergraph codes. We also propose an iterative decoding algorithm of hypergraph codes that corrects a larger proportion of errors than known previously for this code family.
