Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

<para xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> Stochastic decoding is a new approach to iterative decoding on graphs. This paper presents a hardware architecture for fully parallel stochastic low-density parity-check (LDPC) decoders. To obtain the characteristics of the proposed architecture, we apply this architecture to decode an irregular state-of-the-art (1056,528) LDPC code on a Xilinx Virtex-4 LX200 field-programmable gate-array (FPGA) device. The implemented decoder achieves a clock frequency of 222 MHz and a throughput of about 1.66 Gb/s at <formula formulatype="inline"> <tex>$E_{b}/N_{0}={\hbox {4.25~dB}}$</tex></formula> (a bit error rate of <formula formulatype="inline"><tex>$10^{-8}$</tex></formula>). It provides decoding performance within 0.5 and 0.25 dB of the floating-point sum-product algorithm with 32 and 16 iterations, respectively, and similar error-floor behavior. The decoder uses less than 40% of the lookup tables, flip-flops, and IO ports available on the FPGA device. The results provided in this paper validate the potential of stochastic LDPC decoding as a practical and competitive fully parallel decoding approach. </para>

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
