Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide various systems and methods for creating persistent data for a wafer and using persistent data for inspection-related functions.SOLUTION: One system includes a set of processor nodes 20 coupled to a detector 10 of an inspection system. Each of the processor nodes 20 is configured to receive a portion of image data generated by the detector 10 during scanning of a wafer 12. The system also includes an array 22 of storage media separately coupled to each of the processor nodes 20. The processor nodes 20 are configured to send all of the image data or a selected portion of the image data received by the processor nodes 20 to the arrays 22 of storage media such that all of the image data or the selected portion of the image data generated by the detector 10 during the scanning of the wafer 12 is stored in the arrays 22 of the storage media.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for performing diagnostic functions for a deep learning model are provided. One system includes one or more components executed by one or more computer subsystems. The one or more components include a deep learning model configured for determining information from an image generated for a specimen by an imaging tool. The one or more components also include a diagnostic component configured for determining one or more causal portions of the image that resulted in the information being determined and for performing one or more functions based on the determined one or more causal portions of the image.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for detecting defects on a specimen are provided. One system includes a generative model. The generative model includes a non-linear network configured for mapping blocks of pixels of an input feature map volume into labels. The labels are indicative of one or more defect-related characteristics of the blocks. The system inputs a single test image into the generative model, which determines features of blocks of pixels in the single test image and determines labels for the blocks based on the mapping. The system detects defects on the specimen based on the determined labels.
Abstract:
The invention discloses a method and system for displaying electronic information for an Online Dating Service. Information is received through a variety of means including electronic analysis of photographs and communications as well as direct questions posed to an individual. Once the information is received a profile describing the interest, personality traits and what traits the individual looks for in a companion is created. To prevent priming based on physical appearance the word cloud is displayed to other individuals prior to a photograph. The photograph can be revealed to the other individuals if they take affirmative action to view the photograph or after an arbitrary period of time such that the other individuals can be primed based on the information in the word cloud without losing the emotional investment in finding a companion.
Abstract:
Methods for generating a standard reference die for use in a die to standard reference die inspection and methods for inspecting a wafer are provided. One computer-implemented method for generating a standard reference die for use in a die to standard reference die inspection includes acquiring output of an inspection system for a centrally located die on a wafer and one or more dies located on the wafer. The method also includes combining the output for the centrally located die and the one or more dies based on within die positions of the output. In addition, the method includes generating the standard reference die based on results of the combining step.
