Abstract: Systems and methods for designing a photomask are disclosed. In an example, a designed pattern is provided. A virtual photomask having a simulated pattern corresponding to the designed pattern is created by at least one processor. The simulated pattern is optimized so that a final pattern to be produced onto a semiconductor substrate converges with the designed pattern.

The correction is based, at least in part, on a model trained from a plurality of training samples.

Abstract: The present disclosure belongs to the field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a ring-opening polymerization method for a cyclic monomer. A specific solution is that a Lewis acid-base pair is used to catalyze ring-opening polymerization of the cyclic monomer in the presence of an initiator. By using the Lewis acid-base pair as a catalyst, on one hand, a range of a ring-opening polymerization catalyst is widened, and on the other hand, this catalyst achieves a higher catalytic efficiency and is milder in comparison with previously reported strong acid or strong base catalysts. In addition, through a bifunctional activation mechanism, this catalyst system activates the monomer and simultaneously activates the initiator or a chain end, and has the characteristics of high efficiency in comparison with the reported monomer activation mechanism or chain end activation mechanism.

Abstract: Systems and methods for detection and classification of malware using an AI-based approach are provided. In one embodiment, a T-node maintains a sample library including benign and virus samples. A classification model is generated by training a classifier based on features extracted from the samples. The classification model is distributed to D-nodes for use as a local virus detection model. Responsive to detection of a virus by a D-node, the T-node receives a virus sample from the D-node. When the virus sample is not in the sample library, it is incorporated into the sample library. A feature depository is created/updated by the T-node by extracting features from the samples. Responsive to a retraining event: (i) an improved classification model is created by retraining the classifier based on the feature depository; and (ii) the D-nodes are upgraded by replacing their local virus detection models with the improved classification model.
