US Patent:

8565910, Oct 22, 2013

Filed:

Feb 4, 2011

Appl. No.:

13/020846

Inventors:

Gary W. Behm - Hopewell Junction NY, US
Malek Ben Salem - Wappingers Falls NY, US
Yue Li - Hopewell Junction NY, US

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G05B 13/02

US Classification:

700108, 702183

Abstract:

A method of sampling semiconductor wafers includes passing a lot of semiconductor wafers into a semiconductor processing tool, processing a first portion of the lot in one process chamber of the semiconductor processing tool and a second portion of the lot in another process chamber of the semiconductor processing tool to produce processed semiconductor wafers, and initiating a wafer sampling engine to select at least one of the processed semiconductor wafers for sampling. The wafer sampling engine computes a long term process capability index for the processing tool and a short term process performance index for at least one of the processing tool and process chamber, identifies at least one desired sampling measurement type, selects the at least one of the processed semiconductor wafers for sampling, and collects the desired measurement types from the at least one of the processed semiconductor wafers selected for sampling.

Filed:

Mar 17, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/049565

Inventors:

Gary W. Behm - Hopewell Junction NY, US
Yue Li - Hopewell Junction NY, US
Malek Ben Salem - Wappingers Falls NY, US
Keith Tabakman - Fishkill NY, US

Assignee:

INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G06F 17/00

US Classification:

700110, 700109

Abstract:

A method of performing measurement sampling in a production process includes passing a lot through a manufacturing process, employing a set of combinational logistics to determine if sampling is indicated and, if sampling is indicated, establishing a sampling decision. The method further requires querying a set of lot sampling rules to evaluate the sampling decision, evaluating a statistical quality of the process if no lot sampling rules exist, and automatically determining whether the lot passing through the production process requires sampling based on the combinational logistics, statistical quality and lot sampling rules.

US Patent:

Appl. No.:

17/356447

Inventors:

- Dublin, IE
Neil Hayden Liberman - Arlington VA, US
Aolin Ding - Piscataway NJ, US
Malek Ben Salem - Falls Church VA, US

International Classification:

G06Q 20/40
G06N 20/20
G06F 9/455

Abstract:

Aspects of the present disclosure provide systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media that support cooperative training of machine learning (ML) models that preserves privacy in untrusted environments using distributed executable file packages. The executable file packages may include files, libraries, scripts, and the like that enable a cloud service provider configured to provide server-side ML model training to also support cooperative ML model training with multiple clients, particularly for a fraud prediction model for financial transactions. Because the cooperative training includes the clients training respective ML models and the server aggregating the trained ML models, private client data such as financial transaction data may be used to train the fraud prediction model without exposing the client data to others. Such cooperative ML model training enables offloading of computing resource-intensive training from client devices to the server and may train a more robust fraud detection model.
