LithoHoD: A Litho Simulator-Powered Framework for IC Layout Hotspot Detection
Hao-Chiang Shao, Guan-Yu Chen, Yu-Hsien Lin +4
Recent advances in VLSI fabrication technology have led to die shrinkage and increased layout density, creating an urgent demand for advanced hotspot detection techniques. However,…
Keeping Deep Lithography Simulators Updated: Global-Local Shape-Based Novelty Detection and Active Learning
Hao-Chiang Shao, Hsing-Lei Ping, Kuo-shiuan Chen +5
Learning-based pre-simulation (i.e., layout-to-fabrication) models have been proposed to predict the fabrication-induced shape deformation from an IC layout to its fabricated circu…
From IC Layout to Die Photo: A CNN-Based Data-Driven Approach
Hao-Chiang Shao, Chao-Yi Peng, Jun-Rei Wu +4
We propose a deep learning-based data-driven framework consisting of two convolutional neural networks: i) LithoNet that predicts the shape deformations on a circuit due to IC fabr…
