Abstract
A method of encoding a set of information bits to produce a codeword that encodes the set of information bits for reliable communication is provided. The set of information bits is received. The set of information bits are provided to a plurality of permutation layers separated by neural network processing layers. Each permutation layer accepts an input vector and generates a reordered output vector that is a reordering of the input vector. Each neural network processing layer accepts a vector of input values and generates a vector of output values based on a non-linear function of the vector of input values. The reordered output vector of a final permutation layer of the plurality of permutation layers is provided as the codeword. In some embodiments, a corresponding method of decoding a codeword to retrieve a set of information bits is provided.
