In an integrated circuit (IC) assessment method, an artificial intelligence (AI) component comprising at least one artificial neural network (ANN) is trained to transform layout rendering tiles of a rendering of a reference IC into corresponding reference layout image tiles extracted from at least one layout image of the reference IC. Using the trained AI component, standard cell layout renderings of a library of GDSII or OASIS standard cell layout renderings are transformed into as-fabricated standard cell layout renderings forming a library of as fabricated standard cell layout renderings. Instantiated standard cells and their placements in the layout image of an IC-under-test are identified by matching the instantiated standard cells with corresponding as-fabricated standard cell layout renderings retrieved from the library of as fabricated standard cell layout renderings.
