Abstract
A method for timing optimization is disclosed. The method includes obtaining information on detour locations of a chip by performing a routing operation, establishing, through machine learning, a model that describes a relationship between an image map and the detour locations, generating predicted detour locations based on the model and the image map, determining the probability of detouring in a region of the predicted detour locations, determining a predicted detour net for a path in a region having a high probability of detour, and determining sensitivity of the path.
