FlintKV: A Fast Durable Storage Engine for Modern Databases

Byte-addressable non-volatile memory (NVM) offers an opportunity to rethink storage engine architectures. While recent NVM key-value stores achieve high throughput for ingestion and point lookups, they omit or under-specify the support for the richer interface guarantees required by modern databases. Production key-value engines (e.g., RocksDB) provide point-in-time snapshots, consistent iterators, and atomic batches-features essential for implementing transactions and concurrency control. We present FlintKV, an NVM-optimized skiplist-based storage engine that natively supports the full API of production key-value stores. FlintKV supports both atomic batch writes and snapshot-consistent iteration efficiently while guaranteeing durable linearizability. FlintKV can be deployed standalone or its durable skiplist can be integrated into existing NVM stores to enhance their capabilities. Central to FlintKV is a novel flat-combining based concurrency control algorithm that leverages multi-versioning and carefully co-designed persistence mechanisms to ensure high performance and scalability. Our empirical evaluation shows that FlintKV can achieve up to a 75% improvement in end-to-end throughput over prior work.

Topology-Aware Exploration of Energy-Based Models Equilibrium: Toric QC-LDPC Codes and Hyperbolic MET QC-LDPC Codes

This paper presents a method for achieving equilibrium in the ISING Hamiltonian when confronted with unevenly distributed charges on an irregular grid. Employing (Multi-Edge) QC-LDPC codes and the Boltzmann machine, our approach involves dimensionally expanding the system, substituting charges with circulants, and representing distances through circulant shifts. This results in a systematic mapping of the charge system onto a space, transforming the irregular grid into a uniform configuration, applicable to Torical and Circular Hyperboloid Topologies. The paper covers fundamental definitions and notations related to QC-LDPC Codes, Multi-Edge QC-LDPC codes, and the Boltzmann machine. It explores the marginalization problem in code on the graph probabilistic models for evaluating the partition function, encompassing exact and approximate estimation techniques. Rigorous proof is provided for the attainability of equilibrium states for the Boltzmann machine under Torical and Circular Hyperboloid, paving the way for the application of our methodology. Practical applications of our approach are investigated in Finite Geometry QC-LDPC Codes, specifically in Material Science. The paper further explores its effectiveness in the realm of Natural Language Processing Transformer Deep Neural Networks, examining Generalized Repeat Accumulate Codes, Spatially-Coupled and Cage-Graph QC-LDPC Codes. The versatile and impactful nature of our topology-aware hardware-efficient quasi-cycle codes equilibrium method is showcased across diverse scientific domains without the use of specific section delineations.

Cyclic Group Projection for Enumerating Quasi-Cyclic Codes Trapping Sets

This paper introduces a novel approach to enumerate and assess Trapping sets in quasi-cyclic codes, those with circulant sizes that are non-prime numbers. Leveraging the quasi-cyclic properties, the method employs a tabular technique to streamline the importance sampling step for estimating the pseudo-codeword weight of Trapping sets. The presented methodology draws on the mathematical framework established in the provided theorem, which elucidates the behavior of projection and lifting transformations on pseudo-codewords

Spherical and Hyperbolic Toric Topology-Based Codes On Graph Embedding for Ising MRF Models: Classical and Quantum Topology Machine Learning

The paper introduces the application of information geometry to describe the ground states of Ising models by utilizing parity-check matrices of cyclic and quasi-cyclic codes on toric and spherical topologies. The approach establishes a connection between machine learning and error-correcting coding. This proposed approach has implications for the development of new embedding methods based on trapping sets. Statistical physics and number geometry applied for optimize error-correcting codes, leading to these embedding and sparse factorization methods. The paper establishes a direct connection between DNN architecture and error-correcting coding by demonstrating how state-of-the-art architectures (ChordMixer, Mega, Mega-chunk, CDIL, ...) from the long-range arena can be equivalent to of block and convolutional LDPC codes (Cage-graph, Repeat Accumulate). QC codes correspond to certain types of chemical elements, with the carbon element being represented by the mixed automorphism Shu-Lin-Fossorier QC-LDPC code. The connections between Belief Propagation and the Permanent, Bethe-Permanent, Nishimori Temperature, and Bethe-Hessian Matrix are elaborated upon in detail. The Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) used in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick Ising model can be seen as analogous to the back-propagation loss function landscape in training DNNs. This similarity creates a comparable problem with TS pseudo-codeword, resembling the belief propagation method. Additionally, the layer depth in QAOA correlates to the number of decoding belief propagation iterations in the Wiberg decoding tree. Overall, this work has the potential to advance multiple fields, from Information Theory, DNN architecture design (sparse and structured prior graph topology), efficient hardware design for Quantum and Classical DPU/TPU (graph, quantize and shift register architect.) to Materials Science and beyond.

Self-supervised similarity models based on well-logging data

Adopting data-based approaches leads to model improvement in numerous Oil&Gas logging data processing problems. These improvements become even more sound due to new capabilities provided by deep learning. However, usage of deep learning is limited to areas where researchers possess large amounts of high-quality data. We present an approach that provides universal data representations suitable for solutions to different problems for different oil fields with little additional data. Our approach relies on the self-supervised methodology for sequential logging data for intervals from well, so it also doesn't require labelled data from the start. For validation purposes of the received representations, we consider classification and clusterization problems. We as well consider the transfer learning scenario. We found out that using the variational autoencoder leads to the most reliable and accurate models. approach We also found that a researcher only needs a tiny separate data set for the target oil field to solve a specific problem on top of universal representations.

With no Color and Scent (part III): Architecture of metal shells grown on templates by pulse current electrodeposition

A method of growing mushroom or shell like nanostructured metal convex concave models has been worked out. Silver,copper,nickel,rhodium and Pd-Ni,Pd-Co alloy structures are reproduced as a result of self-assembly of nanowires growing on porous membranes in the course of pulse current electrodeposition. It is shown that the method allows to model not only the shell shape but also the hierarchical structure at the nano, micro and mesolevels. A 1,2 mm sized shell was grown from Pd-Ni alloy. The architecture of the models was studied by fragmentation and chemical etching. The images were obtained using SUPRA 50 VP and JEOL scanning electron microscopes. The metal shell is a bowl-shaped frame, its walls composed of densely packed nanoelements. Each nanoelement is a conical bundle of nanowires grown as a supported wine glass. The shell inner surface is a weave of nanowires with a vegetation pattern with bottom up directed lines. The inner surface exhibits also well pronounced transverse rings formed by the bottom up growing bundles of nanowires that compose the shell frame. A number of nanowire bundle ends rise to the shell outer surface as nanoflowers that can serve as templates for growing nanowires. In some cases the nanowires growing on the outer surface form a copy of plate mushroom. A hypothesis is proposed that pulsed growth on membranes is a tool of morphogenesis of many mushrooms and plants.
