  • Publication number: 20240128987
    Abstract: A decoding method, a memory storage device and a memory control circuit unit are disclosed. The method includes: activating a decoding circuit which supports a plurality of decoding modes each corresponding to a threshold value, wherein a distribution of the threshold value corresponds to error correction abilities of the decoding modes; reading first data from a rewritable non-volatile memory module; performing, by the decoding circuit, a first decoding operation on the first data; obtaining a decoding parameter according to an execution result of the first decoding operation; and performing, by the decoding circuit, a second decoding operation on the first data based on a first decoding mode among the decoding modes according to a relative numerical relationship between the decoding parameter and the threshold value.

  • Patent number: 11922470
    Abstract: Impact-based strength and weakness determination includes receiving a plurality of industry-wide feedback items, the industry-wide feedback items pertaining to a plurality of entities associated with an industry. It further includes, based at least in part on an evaluation of the plurality of industry-wide feedback items, generating an industry-wide reputation scoring model usable to determine an expected reputation score for a typical entity in the industry based at least in part on a combination of one or more reputation score components. Generating the industry-wide reputation scoring model comprises determining (1) a baseline reputation score, and (2) an expected impact of a reputation score component on reputation scoring for the typical entity in the industry.

  • Publication number: 20230214150
    Abstract: A read voltage level correction method, a memory storage device, and a memory control circuit unit are provided. The method includes: using a first read voltage level as an initial read voltage level to perform a first data read operation on a first physical unit among multiple physical units to obtain a second read voltage level used to successfully read the first physical unit; recording association information between the first read voltage level and the second read voltage level in a transient look-up table; and performing a second data read operation according to a read level tracking table and the association information recorded in the transient look-up table.
