Abstract
A computing system may include a hotspot processing engine and a hotspot prediction engine. The hotspot processing engine may be configured to access an input data set of hotspot locations on manufactured circuits of a circuit design, correlate the hotspot locations to layout data for the circuit design, and extract fragment feature vectors for the hotspot locations. The hotspot processing engine may further be configured to process the fragment feature vectors such that hotspot fragment feature vectors are a threshold percentage of the total number of feature vectors in the fragment feature vectors and provide the processed fragment feature vectors as a training set for training a machine-learning model. The hotspot prediction engine may be configured to apply the machine-learning model to characterize locations of the circuit design as a hotspot location or a non-hotspot location.
