Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosed technology relate to techniques for inverse-lithography-technology-based optical proximity correction. A layout design is received. A machine learning-based clustering process is then performed to separate layout features in the layout design into groups of layout features. For layout features in each of the groups of layout features, preliminary corrections are determined. The determination may be based on inverse lithography technology. The preliminary corrections are applied to the layout design to generate a pre-processed layout design. An inverse lithography technology process is performed on the pre-processed layout design to generate a processed layout design. Masks can be manufactured based on the processed layout design.

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) interprets user specifications to provide architectural diagrams for a wide variety of application scenarios. A cloud architect generates search results responsive to a request for a cloud architecture. The search results indicate at least one example cloud architectural diagram. The cloud architect generates a request to a large language model (LLM) for a recommended cloud architecture based on the user request and the search results. The cloud architect receives a response generated by the LLM indicating at least one recommended cloud architecture. The cloud architect provides an interactive LLM response. The cloud architect enables selection of a recommended cloud architectural diagram, e.g., for deployment, manual editing, or dialog leading to automated customization.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for dynamically generating and applying automated search evaluation sets to improve search results and to automatically detect and correct search system issues are described. A search evaluation set may comprise a set of search evaluation vectors that each map a search query and corresponding properties of the search query to a canonical search result. To detect search system issues over time, baseline search result rankings may be periodically generated or automatically generated after software updates to the search system have been made. Two consecutive baseline search result rankings using the same search evaluation set may then be compared to detect result deviations in search result rankings. If the search system detects that at least a threshold number of result deviations have occurred, then the search system may perform subsequent actions to automatically detect and correct search system issues.
