Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) The performance of LDPC codes under iterative decoding algorithms over the binary erasure channel (BEC) is estimated by the minimum-size stopping sets in the code.
The size of smallest stopping set is called the stopping distance.
The stopping distance plays important role in understanding the performance of the code under iterative decoding over the BEC, akin to the role played by the minimum distance for maximum-likelihood decoding.
Since the stopping distance depends on the structure of parity-check matrix, we can construct the parity-check matrix by adding linearly dependent rows to the matrix, so that the stopping distance is equal to the minimum distance.
The stopping redundancy is defined as the minimum number of rows in such a parity-check matrix.
Although upper and lower bounds on the stopping redundancy of binary linear codes have been derived, it is difficult to compute the stopping redundancy of long-length LDPC codes since the time complexity for computing the stopping redundancy is very large.
In this paper, we propose an efficient method for computing the stopping redundancy of LDPC codes.
It is an algorithm to compute the stopping redundancy using probabilistic algorithm.
Additionally, we show numerical results of computing the stopping redundancy of (504,252) and (1008,504) LDPC codes.
