Abstract: In accordance with techniques for image to structured workflow diagram conversion, an image of a human-drawn workflow diagram is received by a workflow platform. Using one or more image recognition algorithms, the workflow platform detects shapes and lines in the human-drawn workflow diagram, and in one or more implementations, the workflow platform extends the detected lines. Relationships between the shapes are determined based on relative positionings of the extended lines with respect to the shapes. The workflow platform is configured to generate a structured workflow diagram for display in a user interface, and the structured workflow diagram includes compute nodes representing the shapes that are connected by generated lines representing the relationships. In addition, a structured workflow file is generated representing the structured workflow diagram.

Abstract: The present disclosure is related to the field of polymer materials, and, in particular, to a method for synthesizing a bio-based polyamide. More specifically, the disclosure provides a method for synthesizing a block copolymer consisting of a hard segment of a polyamide prepared via solid state polycondensation and a soft segment of a polyether polyol. Due to a reaction of itaconic acid, which contains a carbon-carbon double bond, with hexamethylenediamine, the bio-based polyamide is greatly different from conventional linear polyamides and exhibits a lower glass transition temperature and excellent mechanical properties. Unlike conventional processes for preparing modified polyamides, the bio-based polyamide is synthesized, according to the method, through chain extension of a polyamide with an excess amount of a diisocyanate based on amine value of the polyamide and then crosslinking of the resulting product with a polyether polyol by using glycerol as a crosslinking agent.

Abstract: Described herein relates to a self-supervised reinforced learning (hereinafter “SSRL”) system for question-and-answer query systems that may include one or more initial steps to prime a neural network to prevent an agent from prematurely selecting an early path and method thereof. The SSRL method may also provide the agent with a lead for queries with a large action space, such that at least one existing reinforced learning system may be improved (e.g., accuracy). Additionally, to scale to larger datasets in which label generation for each training sample is infeasible, the SSRL system may include one or more steps of pretraining the dataset(s) with partial labels, which may be generated from a subset of a whole knowledge graph.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to an apparatus and a method for cleaning a processing chamber. In one embodiment, a substrate support cover includes a bulk member coated with a fluoride coating. The substrate support cover is placed on a substrate support disposed in the processing chamber during a cleaning process. The fluoride coating does not react with the cleaning species. The substrate support cover protects the substrate support from reacting with the cleaning species, leading to reduced condensation formed on chamber components, which in turn leads to reduced contamination of the substrate in subsequent processes.

Abstract: Implementations described herein generally relate to an apparatus for forming flowable films. In one implementation, the apparatus is a processing chamber including a first RPS coupled to a lid of the processing chamber and a second RPS coupled to a side wall of the processing chamber. The first RPS is utilized for delivering deposition radicals into a processing region in the processing chamber and the second RPS is utilized for delivering cleaning radicals into the processing region. The processing chamber further includes a radical delivery ring disposed between a showerhead and a substrate support for delivering cleaning radicals from the second RPS into the processing region. Having separate RPSs for deposition and clean along with introducing radicals from the RPSs into the processing region using separate delivery channels minimizes cross contamination and cyclic change on the RPSs, leading to improved deposition rate drifting and particle performance.

Abstract: A piece of chip-to-wafer and chip-to-chip bonding equipment, which has innovative designs enabling chip(s) from either a diamagnetic carrier or a diced wafer to expose the chip back side surface for pickup, is invented.

The invented chip bonder is particularly useful for bonding applications which require using chips with zero tolerance of particle and/or contamination on the chip front surfaces or bonding surfaces.
