Abstract: A method of forming a semiconductor device includes forming a source/drain region on a substrate and forming a first interlayer dielectric (ILD) layer over the source/drain region. The method further includes forming a first conductive region within the first ILD layer, selectively removing a portion of the first conductive region to form a concave top surface of the first conductive region. The method also includes forming a second ILD layer over the first ILD layer and forming a second conductive region within the second ILD layer and on the concave top surface. The concave top surface provides a large contact area, and hence reduced contact resistance between the first and second conductive regions.

Abstract: An aerial vehicle control method includes detecting a flight control instruction during returning of an aerial vehicle to a return point along a return trajectory according to an auto return instruction. The flight control instruction determines a predetermined trajectory different from the return trajectory. The method further includes generating a superimposed instruction by superimposing return point position information indicating the return point and the flight control instruction. The superimposed instruction determines a flight trajectory that is an integration of the return trajectory and the predetermined trajectory and that is different from the return trajectory and the predetermined trajectory. The method also includes controlling the aerial vehicle to fly along the flight trajectory according to the superimposed instruction.

Abstract: Techniques for training a machine-learning (ML) model for captioning images are disclosed. A plurality of feature vectors and a plurality of visual attention maps are generated by a visual model of the ML model based on an input image. Each of the plurality of feature vectors correspond to different regions of the input image. A plurality of caption attention maps are generated by an attention model of the ML model based on the plurality of feature vectors. An attention penalty is calculcated based on a comparison between the caption attention maps and the visual attention maps. A loss function is calculcated based on the attention penalty. One or both of the visual model and the attention model are trained using the loss function.

Abstract: A method includes forming a mask layer over a target layer. A first etching process is performed on the mask layer to form a first opening and a second opening in the mask layer. A second etching process is performed on the mask layer to reduce an end-to-end spacing between the first opening and the second opening. The first etching process and the second etching process have different anisotropy properties. A pattern of the mask layer is transferred to the target layer.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate generally to a methodology of efficient object classification within a visual medium. The methodology utilizes a first neural network to perform an attention based object localization within a visual medium to generate a visual mask. The visual mask is applied to the visual medium to generate a masked visual medium. The masked visual medium may be then fed into a second neural network to detect and classify objects within the visual medium.

Different flight-response measures may be taken based on various parameters.

Abstract: Methods of improving hot carrier parameters in a field-effect transistor by hydrogen reduction. A gate structure of the field-effect transistor is formed on a substrate, and the substrate is heated inside a deposition chamber to a given process temperature for a given time period. After the time period concludes, a conformal layer is deposited at the given process temperature over the gate structure, and is subsequently etched to form sidewall spacers on the gate structure. After the sidewall spacers are formed, a capping layer is conformally deposited over the gate structure and the sidewall spacers, and cured with an ultraviolet light treatment. An interconnect structure may be formed over the field-effect transistor and the capping layer, and a moisture barrier layer may be formed over the interconnect structure. The moisture barrier layer is composed of a material that is permeable to hydrogen and impermeable to water molecules.
