Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying patterns in blockchain activities based on multi-modal data using artificial intelligence models that compensate for training data featuring a high proportion of missing data points. For example, the system may receive blockchain activity record data for a plurality of blockchain activities involving a plurality of blockchain accounts. The system may input the data into an artificial intelligence model, wherein the artificial intelligence model is trained to identify serial relationships of related blockchain activities corresponding to inputted target blockchain activities based on proportions of digital assets at subsets of blockchain accounts of the plurality of blockchain accounts. The system may receive an output from the artificial intelligence model. The system may generate for display, in a user interface, a visualization of the target blockchain activity based on the output.

Abstract: In order to guarantee data validity of data read from a memory device of the data storage device to a host device, a controller of the data storage device may calculate a cyclic redundancy code (CRC) signature of the decoded data and compare the CRC signature of the decoded data with a CRC signature of the data. The CRC signature of the data is generated during a write operation of the data to the memory device. Rather than returning an uncorrectable error correction code error (UECC) error to the host device when the CRC signature of the decoded data does not match the CRC signature of the data, the controller executes the read command again. By using a different buffer to store the decoded data, the controller may confirm whether the error stemmed from the read path or the error was not from the read path.
