Abstract: Machine-trained models are generated based on a model description that defines parameters for training the model and that can inherit parameters from parent model descriptions. When a parent model description changes, the changes made to the parent model description are applied to the model description automatically. When a target model is re-generated, a description of the set of parameters for generating the target model is received. The parent model is then identified from the received description, and a description of the set of parameters for generating the parent model is retrieved. Using the description for the target model and the parent model, a pipeline for generating the target model is generated. Finally, the pipeline is executed to generate the target model.

Abstract: Printed circuit boards (PCB) used to mechanically and electrically connect electrical components within an electronic device. Thin printed circuit boards (PCB) may be desirable to manufacturers and users of electronic devices. Accordingly, a process for manufacturing a printed circuit board may involve manufacturing a thin bilayer dielectric. The process may involve applying a first non-conductive layer to a metal substrate, and curing the first non-conductive layer to a C-stage resin layer that is fully cross-linked layer in a clean environment. In turn, a B-stage layer that is partially cured may be applied to the C-stage resin layer. Using a hot press, one or more metal traces may be pressed onto the B-stage layer. The B-stage resin layer may be fully cross-linked and integrated with the C-stage resin layer after lamination of the one or more metal traces and the B-stage resin layer.
