A memory system includes a non-volatile memory and a memory controller. The memory controller is configured to read a received word from the non-volatile memory, estimate noise by using a plurality of different models for estimating the noise included in the received word to obtain a plurality of noise estimation values, select one noise estimation value from the plurality of noise estimation values, update the received word by using a value obtained by subtracting the selected noise estimation value from the read received word, and decode the updated received word by using a belief-propagation method.

Memory system

According to one embodiment, a learning device includes a noise generation unit, a decoding unit, a generation unit, and a learning unit. The noise generation unit outputs a second code word which corresponds to a first code word to which noise has been added. The decoding unit decodes the second code word and outputs a third code word. The generation unit generates learning data for learning a weight in message passing decoding in which the weight and a message to be transmitted are multiplied, based on whether or not decoding of the second code word into the third code word has been successful. The learning unit determines a value for the weight in the message passing decoding by using the learning data.
