In this paper, we present an infinite family of MDS codes over $\mathbb{F}_{2^s}$ and two infinite families of almost MDS codes over $\mathbb{F}_{p^s}$ for any prime $p$, by investigating the parameters of the dual codes of two families of BCH codes. Notably, these almost MDS codes include two infinite families of near MDS codes over $\mathbb{F}_{3^s}$, resolving a conjecture posed by Geng et al. in 2022. Furthermore, we demonstrate that both of these almost AMDS codes and their dual codes hold infinite families of $3$-designs over \(\mathbb{F}_{p^s}\) for any prime $p$. Additionally, we study the subfield subcodes of these families of MDS and near MDS codes, and provide several binary, ternary, and quaternary codes with best known parameters.

In the last decade, embedded multi-label feature selection methods, incorporating the search for feature subsets into model optimization, have attracted considerable attention in accurately evaluating the importance of features in multi-label classification tasks. Nevertheless, the state-of-the-art embedded multi-label feature selection algorithms based on least square regression usually cannot preserve sufficient discriminative information in multi-label data. To tackle the aforementioned challenge, a novel embedded multi-label feature selection method, termed global redundancy and relevance optimization in orthogonal regression (GRROOR), is proposed to facilitate the multi-label feature selection. The method employs orthogonal regression with feature weighting to retain sufficient statistical and structural information related to local label correlations of the multi-label data in the feature learning process. Additionally, both global feature redundancy and global label relevancy information have been considered in the orthogonal regression model, which could contribute to the search for discriminative and non-redundant feature subsets in the multi-label data. The cost function of GRROOR is an unbalanced orthogonal Procrustes problem on the Stiefel manifold. A simple yet effective scheme is utilized to obtain an optimal solution. Extensive experimental results on ten multi-label data sets demonstrate the effectiveness of GRROOR.

In the standard Bell scenario, when making a local projective measurement on each system component, the amount of randomness generated is restricted. However, this limitation can be surpassed through the implementation of sequential measurements. Nonetheless, a rigorous definition of random numbers in the context of sequential measurements is yet to be established, except for the lower quantification in device-independent scenarios. In this paper, we define quantum intrinsic randomness in sequential measurements and quantify the randomness in the Collins-Gisin-Linden-Massar-Popescu (CGLMP) inequality sequential scenario. Initially, we investigate the quantum intrinsic randomness of the mixed states under sequential projective measurements and the intrinsic randomness of the sequential positive-operator-valued measure (POVM) under pure states. Naturally, we rigorously define quantum intrinsic randomness under sequential POVM for arbitrary quantum states. Furthermore, we apply our method to one-Alice and two-Bobs sequential measurement scenarios, and quantify the quantum intrinsic randomness of the maximally entangled state and maximally violated state by giving an extremal decomposition. Finally, using the sequential Navascues-Pironio-Acin (NPA) hierarchy in the device-independent scenario, we derive lower bounds on the quantum intrinsic randomness of the maximally entangled state and maximally violated state., Comment: 26 pages 5 figures

In this paper, the sufficient and necessary condition for the minimum distance of the BCH codes over $\mathbb{F}_q$ with length $q+1$ and designed distance 3 to be 3 and 4 are provided. Let $d$ be the minimum distance of the BCH code $\mathcal{C}_{(q,q+1,3,h)}$. We prove that (1) for any $q$, $d=3$ if and only if $\gcd(2h+1,q+1)>1$; (2) for $q$ odd, $d=4$ if and only if $\gcd(2h+1,q+1)=1$. By combining these conditions with the dimensions of these codes, the parameters of this BCH code are determined completely when $q$ is odd. Moreover, several infinite families of MDS and almost MDS (AMDS) codes are shown. Furthermore, the sufficient conditions for these AMDS codes to be distance-optimal and dimension-optimal locally repairable codes are presented. Based on these conditions, several examples are also given.

In this paper, we completely determine the number of solutions to $ \operatorname{Tr}^{q^2}_q(bx+b)+c=0, x\in \mu_{q+1}\backslash \{-1\}$ for all $b\in \mathbb{F}_{q^2}, c\in\mathbb{F}_{q}$. As an application, we can give the weight distributions of a class of linear codes, and give a completely answer to a recent conjecture about a class of NMDS codes proposed by Heng., Comment: 15 pages

Let $r\geq 3$ be any positive integer which is relatively prime to $p$ and $q^2\equiv 1 \pmod r$. Let $\tau_1, \tau_2$ be any permutation polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2},$ $\sigma_M$ is an invertible linear map over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ and $\sigma=\tau_1\circ\sigma_M\circ\tau_2$. In this paper, we prove that, for suitable $\tau_1, \tau_2$ and $\sigma_M$, the map $\sigma$ could be $r$-regular complete permutation polynomials over quadratic extension fields., Comment: 10 pages. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:2212.12869

Let $r\geq 3$ be a positive integer and $\mathbb{F}_q$ the finite field with $q$ elements. In this paper, we consider the $r$-regular complete permutation property of maps with the form $f=\tau\circ\sigma_M\circ\tau^{-1}$ where $\tau$ is a PP over an extension field $\mathbb{F}_{q^d}$ and $\sigma_M$ is an invertible linear map over $\mathbb{F}_{q^d}$. We give a general construction of $r$-regular PPs for any positive integer $r$. When $\tau$ is additive, we give a general construction of $r$-regular CPPs for any positive integer $r$. When $\tau$ is not additive, we give many examples of regular CPPs over the extension fields for $r=3,4,5,6,7$ and for arbitrary odd positive integer $r$. These examples are the generalization of the first class of $r$-regular CPPs constructed by Xu, Zeng and Zhang (Des. Codes Cryptogr. 90, 545-575 (2022))., Comment: 24 pages
