Abstract

Methods and systems for fabricating an integrated circuit include training a machine learning model using a training set that includes known physical design layout patterns that are classified according to whether the patterns include a hotspot. It is determined whether an input physical design layout pattern includes a hotspot using the machine learning model. A hotspot localization is generated for the input physical design layout patterns. The input physical design pattern is adjusted to cure the hotspot. A circuit is fabricated in accordance with the adjusted input physical design layout pattern.
