  • Patent number: 12370646
    Abstract: Data received from an in-situ monitoring system includes, for each scan of a sensor, a plurality of measured signal values for a plurality of different locations on a layer. A thickness of a polishing pad is determined based on the data from the in-situ monitoring system. For each scan, a portion of the measured signal values are adjusted based on the thickness of the polishing pad. For each scan of the plurality of scans and each location of the plurality of different locations, a value is generated representing a thickness of the layer at the location. This includes processing the adjusted signal values using one or more processors configured by machine learning. A polishing endpoint is detected or a polishing parameter is modified based on the values representing the thicknesses at the plurality of different locations.

  • Patent number: 12354010
    Abstract: Techniques for exchanging compressed gradient data within a distributed system are disclosed. A set of gradients are computed at a first worker node of the distributed system using a neural network model and a set of weights associated with the neural network model. Each of the set of gradients having a value less than a threshold is clipped, resulting in non-clipped data elements and clipped data elements. A mapping indicating which of the set of gradients correspond to non-clipped data elements and which of the set of gradients correspond to clipped data elements is generated. Compressed data is generated based on the non-clipped data elements. The mapping and the compressed data are transmitted from the first worker node to a second worker node of the distributed system.

  • Patent number: 12320883
    Abstract: A first resistivity value and a correlation function relating thickness of a conductive layer having the first resistivity value to a signal from an in-situ monitoring system are stored. A second resistivity value for a conductive layer on a substrate is received. A sequence of signal values that depend on thickness of the conductive layer is received from an in-situ electromagnetic induction monitoring system that monitors the substrate during polishing. A sequence of thickness values is generated based on the sequence of signal values and the correlation function. For at least some thickness values of the sequence of thickness values adjusted thickness values are generated that compensate for variation between the first resistivity value and the second resistivity value to generate a sequence of adjusted thickness values. A polishing endpoint is detected or an adjustment for a polishing parameter is determined based on the sequence of adjusted thickness values.

  • Patent number: 12254398
    Abstract: To reduce the storage size of weight tensors and speed up loading of weight tensors from system memory, a compression technique can be employed to remove zero values from a weight tensor before storing the weight tensor in system memory. A sparsity threshold can be enforced to achieve a compression ratio target by forcing small weight values to zero during training. When the weight tensor is loaded from system memory, a direct memory access (DMA) engine with an in-line decompression unit can decompress the weight tensor on-the-fly. By performing the decompression in the DMA engine, expansion of the weight values back to the original weight tensor size can be carried out in parallel while other neural network computations are being performed by the processing unit.

A tool anode is arranged on the back side of the workpiece and is spaced therefrom. A laser beam is focused on an outer surface of the workpiece to realize localized repairing on the back side. The method realizes localized coating repairing on the back side of the workpiece through coordination between the thermal effect of the laser and the electrochemical deposition based on the characteristic of high thermal conductivity of the workpiece. The electrodeposition reaction does not occur in regions that do not need to be repaired. The operating process is simple, the cost of the plating solution is largely reduced, and the problem that the coating on the inner wall of the thin-walled workpiece is difficult to repair due to stripping is solved.
