  • Publication number: 20240029431
    Abstract: This invention relates to a data dimension reduction method based on maximizing a ratio sum for linear discriminant analysis, which belongs to the fields of image classification and pattern recognition. It includes constructing a data matrix, a label vector and a label matrix; calculating a within-class covariance matrix and a between-class covariance matrix; constructing the optimization problem based on maximizing the ratio sum for the linear discriminant analysis; using the alternating direction method of multipliers to obtain the projection matrix which can maximize an objective function. This invention establishes the objective function based on maximizing the ratio sum for the linear discriminant analysis to avoid the problem that the traditional linear discriminant analysis tends to select features with small variances and weak discriminating ability. It can select features which are more conducive to classification.

  • Patent number: 11776625
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus related to selecting memory cells in a memory array of a memory device. In one approach, bias circuitry generates a voltage on an access line used to select a memory cell for programming. During programming, a controller connects a boost capacitor to the access line by controlling a switch. Connecting the boost capacitor causes an increase in the rate of discharge of the access line (e.g., discharge of a word line to a negative voltage). After programming, the controller disconnects the boost capacitor from the access line, and the boost capacitor is pre-charged in preparation for a next programming operation (e.g., on the same or a different memory cell).

  • Patent number: 11710528
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for data-based polarity write operations are described. A write command may cause a set of data to be written to a set of memory cells. To write the set of data, a write operation that applies voltages across the memory cells based on a logic state of data to be written to the memory cells may be used. During a first interval of the write operation, a voltage may be applied across a memory cell based on a logic state of a data bit to be written to the memory cell. During a second interval of the write operation, a voltage may be applied across the memory cell based on an amount of charge conducted by the memory cell during the first interval.

  • Patent number: 11710517
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for write operation techniques for memory systems are described. In some memory systems, write operations performed on target memory cells of the memory device may disturb logic states stored by one or more adjacent memory cells. Such disturbances may cause reductions in read margins when accessing one or more memory cells, or may cause a loss of data in one or more memory cells. The described techniques may reduce aspects of logic state degradation by supporting operational modes where a host device, a memory device, or both, refrains from writing information to a region of a memory array, or inhibits write commands associated with write operations on a region of a memory array.

  • Patent number: 11651825
    Abstract: The present disclosure includes systems, apparatuses, and methods related to generating a random data value. For example, a first read operation may be performed on a memory cell programmed to a first state, wherein the first read operation is performed using a first read voltage that is within a predetermined threshold voltage distribution corresponding to the first state. A programming signal may be applied to the memory cell responsive to the first read operation resulting in a snapback event, wherein the programming signal is configured to place the memory cell in a second state. A second read operation may be performed to determine whether the memory cell is in the first state or the second state using a second read voltage that is between the predetermined threshold voltage distribution corresponding to the first state and a second threshold voltage distribution corresponding to the second state.

  • Publication number: 20220415394
    Abstract: A memory device having memory cells, voltage drivers, and a controller configured to determine, based on an attribute of a memory cell, whether to apply a drift cancellation pulse that is in the opposite polarity of a programming pulse configured to place the memory cell in a state to represent a bit of data. If the drift in the state of the memory cell from a previous programming operation to write data into the memory cell is predicted to be insufficient to prevent the selection of the memory cell during the application of the programming pulse, the drift cancellation pulse is skipped. Otherwise, the drift cancellation pulse is applied in the opposite polarity of the programming pulse.
