Abstract
A system may include a controller for receiving one or more images of a metrology target including periodic features with one or more known pitches, pre-processing the one or more images using a decomposition technique to generate one or more pre-processed images, and generating one or more metrology measurements for the metrology target based on the one or more pre-processed images. Pre-processing a particular image of the one or more images may include constructing one or more trajectory matrices from the particular image, generating reconstruction components associated with the particular image from the one or more trajectory matrices using the decomposition technique, and generating a particular one of the one or more pre-processed images by based on a subset of the reconstruction components including signals with at least one of the one or more known pitches.
