Abstract

Dispositif et procédé de génération de masques photolithographiques La présente description concerne un procédé comprenant :- la compression (800), par un processeur, d’une image (906) comprenant des premiers motifs, en faisant la transformation de l’image vers une première représentation composée d’éléments à deux points ;- l’exécution, par réseau de neurones (712), d’une opération d’inférence sur la première représentation afin de générer une deuxième représentation composée d’éléments à deux points ; et- la génération d’un masque lithographique (914) sur la base de la décompression (802) de la deuxième représentation. Figure pour l'abrégé : Fig. 8
