    Abstract: Methods of generating a characteristic pattern for a patterning process and training a machine learning model. A method of training a machine learning model configured to generate a characteristic pattern for a mask pattern includes obtaining (i) a reference characteristic pattern that meets a satisfactory threshold related to manufacturing of the mask pattern, and (ii) a continuous transmission mask (CTM) for use in generating the mask pattern; and training, based on the reference characteristic pattern and the CTM, the machine learning model such that a first metric between the characteristic pattern and the CTM, and a second metric between the characteristic pattern and the reference characteristic pattern is reduced.
