Abstract

In this paper, we establish some criteria to decide when a discrete memoryless channel admits a metric in such a way that the maximum likelihood decoding coincides with the nearest neighbor decoding. In particular, we prove a conjecture presented by M. Firer and J. L. Walker, establishing that every binary asymmetric channel admits a matched metric. (AU)
