Publication number: 20240074177Abstract: Microelectronic devices include a region with a tiered stack that includes insulative, conductive, and non-conductive structures arranged in tiers. The insulative structures vertically alternate with both the conductive and the non-conductive structures. Each of the conductive structures is vertically spaced from another of the conductive structures by at least one of the non-conductive structures and at least two of the insulative structures. A composition of the non-conductive structures differs from a composition of the insulative structures. In methods of fabrication, a precursor stack is formed to include the insulative structures vertically alternating with first and second non-conductive structures. In a region of the precursor stack, the first non-conductive structures are removed, forming voids between multi-structure tier groups. Conductive structures are formed in the voids. Electronic systems are also disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 24, 2022Publication date: February 29, 2024Inventors: David H. Wells, Justin D. Shepherdson, Swapnil A.

Patent number: 7233692Abstract: A method and computer program product are disclosed for identifying output classes with multi-modal dispersion in feature space and incorporating multi-modal structure into a pattern recognition system architecture. A plurality of input patterns, determined not to be associated with any of a set of at least one represented output class by a pattern recognition classifier, are rejected. The rejected pattern samples are grouped into clusters according to the similarities between the pattern samples. Clusters that contain samples associated with a represented output class are identified via independent review. The classifier is then retrained to recognize the identified clusters as output pseudoclasses separate from the represented output class with which they are associated. The system architecture is reorganized to incorporate the output pseudoclasses. The output pseudoclasses are rejoined to their associated class after classification.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2002Date of Patent: June 19, 2007Assignee: Lockheed Martin CorporationInventors: David L.
