A symmetric interleaver for a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) encoder and a circular padding mode are disclosed. The interleaver interleaves elements of an input block to form an output block in which an output neighborhood of elements for each element of the output block is symmetric to an input neighborhood of elements for each element of the input block. A position of an element of the input block is interleaved based on an index i of the position times a parameter δ modulo K in which the parameter δ is relatively prime with K. A test loss function may be used to train the encoder that includes a Binary Cross Entropy (BCE) loss function plus a function that minimizes a number of codeword pairs based on a Euclidean distance. The RNN encoder may be implemented as part of a Turbo Autoencoder (TurboAE) encoder.

The present invention discloses a polar code encoding method and encoding apparatus. The method includes: mapping M reserved bits of a broadcast signaling respectively to M low-reliability information bits in K information bits of a polar code, and mapping remaining bits of the broadcast signaling to remaining information bits of the K information bits, to obtain bits after mapping, where M<K, and both M and K are positive integers; and performing polar code encoding on the bits after mapping, to obtain coded bits after encoding. Embodiments of the present invention can improve broadcast signaling transmission reliability.

Methods and apparatus 3 are provided for encoding data for storage in multilevel memory cells 2 having q cell-levels. Input data words are encoded into respective codewords, each having N symbols with one of q symbol-values, via an encoding scheme adapted such that the q symbol-values have unequal multiplicities within at least some codewords, and the multiplicity of each of the q symbol-values in every codeword is no less than μ, where μ≧2 and more preferably ≧3. A first type of encoding scheme uses recursive symbol-flipping to enforce the μ-constraint, adding indicator symbols to indicate the flipped symbols. A second type of encoding scheme maps data words to codewords of a union of permutation codes, the initial vectors for these permutation codes being selected to enforce the μ-constraint. The N q.sup.ary symbols of each codeword are supplied for storage in respective cells of the multilevel memory 2.
