title = "Relaxation dynamics in stochastic iterative decoders",
abstract = "Stochastic decoding is a recently proposed approach for graph-based iterative error control decoding. We present and investigate three hysteresis methods for stochastic decoding on graphs with cycles and show their close relationship with the successive relaxation method. Implementation results demonstrate the tradeoff in bit error rate performance with circuit complexity.",
