Systems and methods for artificial intelligence discovered codes are described herein. A method includes obtaining received samples from a receive decoder, obtaining decoded bits from the receive decoder based on the receiver samples, training an encoder neural network of a transmit encoder, the encoder neural network receiving parameters that comprise the information bits, the received samples, and the decoded bits. The encoder neural network is optimized using a loss function applied to the decoded bits and the information bits to calculate a forward error correcting code.

According to one embodiment, a memory system includes a nonvolatile memory and a controller. The controller manages a plurality of namespaces for storing a plurality of kinds of data having different update frequencies. The controller encodes write data by using first coding for reducing wear of a memory cell to generate first encoded data, and generates second encoded data to be written to the nonvolatile memory by adding an error correction code to the first encoded data. The controller changes the ratio between the first encoded data and the error correction code based on the namespace to which the write data is to be written.

A transmitter is provided. The transmitter includes: a Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) encoder configured to encode input bits to generate parity bits; a parity permutator configured to group-wise interleave a plurality of bit groups including the parity bits; and a puncturer configured to select some of the parity bits in the group-wise interleaved bit groups and puncture the selected parity bits, wherein the parity permutator group-wise interleaves the bit groups such that some of the bit groups at predetermined positions in the bit groups before the group-wise interleaving are positioned serially after the group-wise interleaving and a remainder of the bit groups before the group-wise interleaving are positioned without an order after the group-wise interleaving so that the puncturer selects parity bits included in the some of the bit groups sequentially and selects parity bits included in the remainder of the bit groups without an order.

A processing system is described. The processing system comprises a microprocessor, a memory controller, a resource and a communication system. The microprocessor is configured to send read requests in order to request the transmission of first data, or write requests comprising second data. The memory controller is configured to read third data from a memory. The processing system comprises also a safety monitor circuit comprising an error detection circuit configured to receive data bits and respective Error Correction Code, ECC, bits, wherein the data bits correspond to the first, second or third data. The safety monitor circuit calculates further ECC bits and generates an error signal by comparing the calculated ECC bits with the received ECC bits. A fault collection and error management circuit receives the error signal from the safety monitor circuits. For example the safety monitor circuit comprises a test circuit configured to provide modified data bits and/or modified ECC bits to the error detection circuit as a function of connectivity test control signals, whereby the error detection circuit asserts the error signal as a function of the connectivity test control signals. The processing system comprises also a connectivity test control circuit comprising control registers programmable via the microprocessor, wherein the connectivity test control signals are generated as a function of the content of the control registers.

The row hammer management circuit counts the number of times of access associated with each of the plurality of memory cell rows in response to an active command from an external memory controller to store the counted values in each of the plurality of memory cell rows as count data, determines a hammer address associated with at least one of the plurality of memory cell rows, which is intensively accessed more than a predetermined reference number of times, based on the counted values, and performs an internal read-update-write operation. The refresh control circuit receives the hammer address and to perform a hammer refresh operation on victim memory cell rows which are physically adjacent to a memory cell row corresponding to the hammer address.

A quantum error correcting code with dynamically generated logical qubits is provided. When viewed as a subsystem code, the code has no logical qubits. Nevertheless, the measurement patterns generate logical qubits, allowing the code to act as a fault-tolerant quantum memory. Each measurement can be a two-qubit Pauli measurement.

Methods, systems, and devices for syndrome check functionality to differentiate between error types are described. A host system, a memory system, or some combination of both may include syndrome check circuitry to provide enhanced error diagnostic capabilities for data communicated between the host system and the memory system. The syndrome check circuitry may receive a first signal from the memory system indicating whether the memory system detected and attempted to correct an error in the data and may receive a second signal from the host system indicating whether the host system detected an error in the received data. The syndrome check circuitry may compare the first signal and the second signal using a set of logic gates to differentiate between different combinations of errors detected at one or both of the memory system or the host system.

A first communication device and a second communication device for an iterative code design are provided. The first communication device generates and transmits sets of parity symbols and receives the transmitted sets of parity symbols from a second communication device. The sets of parity symbols are generated based on using a first generator device and based previously transmitted systematic symbols and computed noise values. The second communication device buffers received systematic symbols and sets of parity symbols and jointly decodes them. Thereby, an iterative code design is provided with improved performance. Furthermore, the disclosure also relates to corresponding methods and a computer program.
