Abstract: A storage device processes deferred unmap operations while maintaining instructions in a write command. A controller in a storage device receives an unmap command and a write command from a host, determines that a logical page in the write command overlaps with a range in the unmap command with deferred unmap operations, and processes the write command. In processing the write command, an L2P translation manager sets a collision bit for the logical page and updates a L2P table. When processing the deferred unmap operations, the controller selects the range and if, based on collision bits in the range the controller determines that there is no overlap between the write command and the range, the controller performs the deferred unmap operations for the range. If the controller determines that there is an overlap, the controller processes the deferred unmap operations to not override the write command.

Abstract: A storage device minimizes HPB entry inactivation resulting from data associated with hot reads being retrieved from multiple HPB sub-regions covering a logical-to-physical table. The storage device may support the HPB feature and a multiple HPB sub-region mode. The storage device includes a controller that tracks a hit count associated with a logical block address in a read command. The controller determines that the hit count has reached a hit threshold and updates a hit table to identify logical block address pages associated with hit counts that have reached the hit threshold across HPB sub-regions covering a logical-to-physical table. The controller transmits the hit table to a host device to be stored in an HPB cache on the host device and to be used by the host device for read commands sent from the host device to the storage device.

Abstract: Image series transformation for optimal compressibility is performed with neural upsampling and error resilience. It incorporates a novel correlation network composed of convolutional layers for feature extraction and a channel-wise transformer with attention to capture complex inter-channel dependencies. The system includes an angle optimizer to further enhance the compressibility of an image and an error resilience subsystem to improve robustness against transmission errors and data loss. The convolutional layers extract multi-dimensional features from the image, while the channel-wise transformer learns global inter-channel relationships. The error resilience subsystem applies forward error correction coding, data partitioning based on importance, and embeds error concealment hints. This hybrid approach addresses both local and global features, mitigates compression artifacts, improves image quality, and enhances data integrity during transmission.

Abstract: A system and method for deep learning using a large codeword model with homomorphically compressed and dyadically encrypted data is disclosed. The system preprocesses input data, applies homomorphic-dyadic compression and encryption, tokenizes the compressed data into sourceblocks, and assigns codewords using a codebook.

The system enables secure operations on encrypted data, preserving privacy while allowing complex computations. The processed output is decrypted, decompressed, and translated to match the input modality. A neural upsampler may further enhance the output. The machine learning core is continuously trained using the processed data and additional training data, improving performance over time.
