Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for decoding data. A first block of data may be obtained from a storage medium or received from a computing device. The first block of data includes a first codeword generated based on an error correction code. A first set of likelihood values is obtained from a neural network. The first set of likelihood values indicates probabilities that the first codeword will be decoded into one of a plurality of decoded values. A second set of likelihood values is obtained from a decoder based on the first block of data. The second set of likelihood values indicates probabilities that the first codeword will be decoded into one of the plurality of decoded values. The first codeword is decoded to obtain a decoded value based on the first set of likelihood values and the second set of likelihood values.
