We studied electromigration (EM) lifetimes and void growth at low cumulative failure probability. We carried out EM test in damascene Cu lines using sudden-death type test structu...
Abstract--Tao et al. have recently proposed the posterior probability support vector machine (PPSVM) which uses soft labels derived from estimated posterior probabilities to be mor...
Premature convergence is a major problem of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO).Although many strategies have been proposed, there is still some work needed to do in high-dimensional...
We describe and evaluate a multi-objective optimisation (MOO) algorithm that works within the Probability Collectives (PC) optimisation framework. PC is an alternative approach to ...
Design verification has become a bottleneck of modern designs. Recently, simulation-based random verification has attracted a lot of interests due to its effectiveness in uncoveri...
