  • Publication number: 20230118614
    Abstract: An electronic device and a method for training a neural network model are provided. The method includes: obtaining a first neural network model and a first pseudo-labeled data; inputting the first pseudo-labeled data into the first neural network model to obtain a second pseudo-labeled data; determining whether a second pseudo-label corresponding to the second pseudo-labeled data matching a first pseudo-label corresponding to the first pseudo-labeled data; in response to the second pseudo-label matching the first pseudo-label, adding the second pseudo-labeled data to a pseudo-labeled dataset; and training the first neural network model according to the pseudo-labeled dataset.

  • Publication number: 20230066892
    Abstract: A production schedule estimation method and a production schedule estimation system are provided. The production schedule estimation method includes the following steps. Current-day work-in-process data, machine group cycle time data of a machine group, and productivity data of the machine group are obtained. The current-day work-in-process data, the cycle time data of the machine group, and the productivity data of the machine group are inputted into a prediction model. Current-day cycle time data and a current-day move volume for each of multiple stations in the machine group are calculated through the prediction model. And, current-day move data is calculated according to the current-day cycle time data and the current-day move volume for each of the multiple stations in the machine group.

  • Patent number: 7292903
    Abstract: A method for determining tool assignment preference applied to a semiconductor manufacturing system. At least one first tool and second tool and at least one first semiconductor process and second semiconductor process applied to the tools are provided. Demand moves provided by the first and second semiconductor processes are calculated. Assignment preferences of the first and second tools are determined using a statistical method. The statistical method is a two-step data feedback method, comprising the steps of, in the first step, calculating assignment preferences of tools without setting assignment preferences, and, in the second step, assigning assignment preferences to the first and second tools according to the calculation result in the first step, wherein the first tool is assigned to a first assignment preference with a lowest average utility rate, and the second tool is assigned to a second assignment preference.
