"Correlation factor" refers to a value that modifies a correlated attribute when the correlated attribute is multiplied by the correlation factor such that the correlated attribute accounts for a correlation associated with the correlation factor. For example, in one embodiment, the correlated attribute may be a read level. Each read level may mark a boundary between two adjacent memory states. A correlation factor may represent how one memory state relates to another memory state such that multiplying the correlation factor by a current read level results in a correlated read level modified to account for the correlation. A correlation factor may be a real number and may be a positive number reflecting a positive correlation, a negative number reflecting a negative correlation, a zero representing no correlation, or a 1 representing a complete correlation.
