A deep neural network (DNN) media noise predictor configured for one-dimensional-magnetic (1DMR) recording or two-dimensional-magnetic (TDMR) is introduced. Such architectures are often combined with a trellis-based intersymbol interference (ISI) detection component in a turbo architecture to avoid the state explosion problem by separating the inter-symbol interference (ISI) detection and media noise estimation into two separate detectors and uses the turbo-principle to exchange information between them so as to address the modeling problem by way of training a DNN-based media noise estimators. Thus, beneficial aspects include a reduced bit-error rate (BER), an increased areal density, and a reduction in computational complexity and computational time.
