Abstract: Semiconductor yield is modeled at the die level to predict die that are susceptible to early lifetime failure (ELF). A first die yield calculation is made from parametric data obtained from wafer testing in a semiconductor manufacturing process. A second die yield calculation is made from die location only. The difference between the first die yield calculation and the second die yield calculation is a prediction delta. Based on an evaluation of the first die yield calculation and the prediction delta, the likelihood of early lifetime failure can be identified and an acceptable level of die loss can be established to remove die from further processing.

Abstract: In a medical image generation method, projection data of a scanned object is acquired during rotation of a radiographic source, and a scout image of the scanned object is generated in one scanning direction using corresponding projection data in two opposite scanning directions in the projection data. The scanning direction is used to represent a relative position relationship between the radiographic source and the scanned object. Using projection data in two opposite directions to generate a scout image in one direction during rotary scanning of a radiographic source can significantly shorten the generation time of the scout image.

Abstract: The present teaching relates to method, system, medium, and implementations for robot path planning. Depth data of obstacles, acquired by depth sensors deployed in a 3D robot workspace and represented with respect to a sensor coordinate system, is transformed into depth data with respect to a robot coordinate system. The 3D robot workspace is discretized to generate 3D grid points representing a discretized 3D robot workspace. Based on the depth data with respect to the robot coordinate system, binarized values are assigned to at least some of 3D grid points to generate a binarized representation for the obstacles present in the 3D robot workspace. With respect to one or more sensing points associated with a part of a robot, it is determined whether the part is to collide with any obstacle. Based on the determining, a path is planned for the robot to move along while avoiding any obstacle.
