Abstract: In a semiconductor structure, a first conductive feature is formed in a trench by PVD and a glue layer is then deposited on the first conductive feature in the trench before CVD deposition of a second conductive feature there-over. The first conductive feature acts as a protection layer to keep silicide from being damaged by later deposition of metal or a precursor by CVD. The glue layer extends along the extent of the sidewall to enhance the adhesion of the second conductive features to the surrounding dielectric layer.

Based on the historical behavior trajectory of the user and multimodal information, the disclosure constructs a dynamic temporal knowledge graph and a static group knowledge graph, which are used to learn interest preferences of the user that change over time and stable features that do not change over time, respectively. At the same time, the disclosure uses deep learning methods to build a point-of-interest recommendation model, which can extract a point-of-interest fusion feature representation and a user fusion feature representation from the two knowledge graphs in combination with a user review sentiment embedding sequence to accurately predict a point of interest most likely to be visited by the target user at a next moment. The disclosure has the characteristics of high precision and strong scalability, and can provide support for personalized user behavior trajectory prediction.

Abstract: A method and system provide the ability to build a game world. A story is obtained that provides a textual narrative of a sequence of events. Plot facilities and a set of constraints are extracted from the story. Each of the plot facilities is a conceptual location where an event happens in the story. Each constraint defines a spatial relation between plot facilities. A map is generated based on the set of constraints by: generating a terrain of two dimensional (2D) polygons that is each associated with a biome type, and assigning each plot facility to a point on the terrain. The assigning complies with a maximum number of constraints and utilizes reinforcement learning (RL) to optimize positions of the points.
