Abstract

A system may include an image clustering engine and a cluster provision engine. The image clustering image may be configured to access a set of circuit images and cluster the circuit images into different groups via an unsupervised learning process, wherein clustering by the unsupervised learning process is invariant to each invariant property of an invariant property set. A given invariant property in the invariant property set may correspond to a given image transformation, the invariant properties in the invariant property set may be discrete, and the total number of invariant properties in the invariant property set may be finite. The cluster provision engine may be configured to provide the clustered circuit images for further processing or analysis by an electronic design automation (EDA) application.
