Information set decoding (ISD) algorithms are the best known procedures to solve the decoding problem for general linear codes. These algorithms are hence used for codes without a visible structure, or for which efficient decoders exploiting the code structure are not known. Classically, ISD algorithms have been studied for codes in the Hamming metric. In this paper we switch from the Hamming metric to the Lee metric, and study ISD algorithms and their complexity for codes measured with the Lee metric over finite rings.
