Precision of Trained Function as a vector map Slide 19 •  Noise between the measured and predicted overlay is relatively

consistent for both Training and Testing groups •  Consider the error as a plus or minus contribution per wafer coordinate

position of any prediction from the trained function

•  With Residuals we flag wafers from IM. •  Something other then inputs we trained with is effecting the overlay signature •  This can be used to remove a wafer from APC or to trigger an investigation

Moving forward Slide 27

•  Work on this subject is open to users with interest in exploring the application, both in production and development environments

•  Topics of interest include exploring effect; •  Fab context from outside the lithocluster has on the overlay

prediction •  Increasing the number of parallel works and neurons has toward

improving the R value (correlation coefficient) between the predicted output and target values in the testing dataset
