    Abstract: A method of correcting data stored in a memory device includes: applying an iterative decoder to the data; determining a total number of rows in first data the decoder attempted to correct; estimating first visible error rows among the total number that continue to have an error after the attempt; estimating residual error rows among the total number that no longer have an error after the attempt; determining second visible error rows in second data of the decoder that continue to have an error by permuting indices of the residual error rows according to a permutation; and correcting the first data using the first visible error rows.

    Abstract: A hardware architecture for systematic erasure encoding includes first matrix constructor circuit that receives parity-check matrix H for codeword C, and the erased part of codeword C, and outputs matrix H1 of columns of H located on erased coordinates of code C; second matrix constructor circuit that receives matrix H and the erased part of codeword C and outputs matrix H2 of columns of H located on non-erased coordinates of code C; a neural network that calculates matrix J1 that is an approximate inverse of matrix H1. The matrix J1 is used to determine new erasures in the parity matrix H and new erased coordinates. Matrices H1 and H2 are updated, and the updated H1 is provided as feedback to the first matrix constructor circuit. A calculator circuit restores the erased coordinates of codeword C, from the matrix J1, matrix H2, and a non-erased part of codeword C.
