Data augmentation for defect inspection based on convolutional neural networks

摘要

Systems and methods for providing an augmented input data to a convolutional neural network (CNN) are disclosed. Wafer images are received at a processor. The wafer image is divided into a plurality of references images each associated with a die in the wafer image. Test images are received. A plurality of difference images are created by differences the test images with the reference images. The reference images and difference images are assembled into the augmented input data for the CNN and provided to the CNN.
