| 11. | Richard Hamming, known for the Hamming code and Hamming distance, is also an alumnus.
|
| 12. | To remedy this shortcoming, Hamming codes can be extended by an extra parity bit.
|
| 13. | As m varies, we get all the possible Hamming codes:
|
| 14. | He invented the concepts known as Hamming codes, Hamming windows, Hamming numbers, and Hamming distance.
|
| 15. | In this context, an extended Hamming code having one extra parity bit is often used.
|
| 16. | He created the Hamming code and the Hamming distance and developed methods for code optimality proofs.
|
| 17. | However, the Hamming code approach works by concentrating wrong guesses together onto certain distributions of hats.
|
| 18. | Thus the Hamming code strategy yields greater win rates for larger values of " N ".
|
| 19. | The Hamming code adds three additional check bits to every four data bits of the message.
|
| 20. | In this sense, extended Hamming codes are single-error correcting and double-error detecting, abbreviated as "'SECDED " '.
