Abstract:

This application relates to apparatus and methods for identifying anomalies within data, such as pricing data. In some examples, a computing device receives data updates and selects a machine learning model to apply to the data update. The computing device may train the machine learning model with features generated based on historical purchase order data. An anomaly score is generated based on application of the machine learning model. Based on the anomaly score, the data update is either allowed, or denied. In some examples, the computing device re-trains the machine learning model with detected anomalies. In some embodiments, the computing device prioritizes detected anomalies for further investigation. In some embodiments, the computing device identifies the cause of the anomalies by identifying at least one feature that is causing the anomaly.

Abstract:

The present disclosure provides forming nanostructures utilizing multiple patterning process with good profile control and feature transfer integrity. In one embodiment, a method for forming features on a substrate includes forming a first mandrel layer on a material layer disposed on a substrate. A first spacer layer is conformally formed on sidewalls of the first mandrel layer, wherein the first spacer layer comprises a doped silicon material. The first mandrel layer is selectively removed while keeping the first spacer layer. A second spacer layer is conformally formed on sidewalls of the first spacer layer and selectively removing the first spacer layer while keeping the second spacer layer.
