However, by taking an object detection network as the backbone, recent learning-based hotspot detectors learn to recognize only the problematic layout patterns in the training data.

To address the problem, we propose a deep learning-based layout novelty detection scheme to identify novel (unseen) layout patterns, which cannot be well predicted by a pre-trained pre-simulation model.

By learning the shape correspondences between pairs of layout design patterns and their scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of the product wafer thereof, given an IC layout pattern, LithoNet can mimic the fabrication process to predict its fabricated circuit shape.
