Abstract
A method of some embodiments receives an initial first physical design of a circuit. The method uses a machine-trained network to generate a second physical design that is a prediction of how the first physical design will look at a subsequent manufacturing stage. The method then uses the second physical design to modify the first physical design. Examples of such modifications include modifying a set of one or more routes in the first physical design and/or modifying a set of placement locations of a set of one or more sub-circuits or circuit components defined in the first physical design.
