Tensor Codes

Definition

Tensor Codes are a class of error-correcting codes used in information theory and computer science to detect and correct errors that occur during data transmission or storage. They are constructed by combining simpler codes using a mathematical operation called a tensor product. In the context of blockchain and distributed systems, tensor codes can be applied to improve data availability and resilience against data corruption. They enhance the robustness of data stored or transmitted across unreliable networks.
