Abstract
Various embodiments include approaches for calibrating a model for a lithographic printing process. Some embodiments include a computer-implemented method for calibrating a model for a lithographic printing process. Some approaches include: identifying parameters for a model of the lithographic printing process; assembling a population of design content including potentially printable features that can be printed by the lithographic printing process; preparing at least one matrix expressing a similarity between the potentially printable features in terms of the parameters for the model; determining a manifold of smaller dimensionality than the parameters for the model which exhibit maximum variation in similarity within the at least one matrix; and selecting a sample dataset of the potentially printable features from the manifold.
