Abstract: Embodiments herein use constraints from a target process (e.g., testing a semiconductor wafer or designing a new integrated circuit) and historical real-world samples (e.g., probe test sample, fault detection, or measured signals) to generate synthesized samples using AI synthesis embedded in a digital twin. These test samples can be combined with real-world test samples and then evaluated to determine next actions. In another example, a digital twin can use an new IC design and a design from an older, but related, IC to synthesize new IC design samples.

Abstract: Disclosed is a computer-implemented method for model ensemble acceleration in an active learning loop. The method includes receiving a set of datapoint inputs, where each datapoint input is an unlabeled equivalent of other datapoint inputs in the set of datapoint inputs and has a different applied weight value. The method then executes a set of neural network models, where the execution of each neural network model is based on the received set of datapoint inputs. The outputs from the set of neural network models are analyzed, where an inference computation is performed, and a label for the set of datapoints is determined. The method then stores the labeled set of datapoint inputs in a database. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Abstract: System and methods are provided for dynamic performance adjustment of a media playing pipeline. For example, the media playing pipeline includes one or more components synchronized for media playing. A reference component in the media playing pipeline is selected, the reference component having a component performance level.
