Yield enhancement in semiconductor fabrication is important. It is ideal to prevent all the failures. However, when a failure occurs, it is important to quickly specify the cause stage and take countermeasure. The automatic method of failure pattern extraction from fail bit map provides reduced time to analysis and facilitates yield enhancement. This paper describes the techniques to automatically classifies a failure pattern using a fail bit map, a new simple schema which facilitates the failure analysis.

In the semiconductor manufacturing, yield enhancement is an urgent issue. It is ideal to prevent all the failures. However, when a failure occurs, it is important to quickly specify the cause stage and take countermeasure. Reviewing wafer level and composite lot level yield patterns has always been an effective way of identifying yield inhibitors and driving process improvement. This process is very time consuming and as such generally occurs only when the overall yield of a device has dropped significantly enough to warrant investigation. The automatic method of failure pattern extraction from fail bit map provides reduced time to analysis and facilitates yield enhancement. The automatic method of failure pattern extraction from fail bit map provides reduced time to analysis and facilitates yield enhancement. This paper describes the techniques to automatically classifies a failure pattern using a fail bit map.

With the enforcement of environmental regulations by the International Maritime Organization, the market for eco-friendly ships is expanding, and ships using electric propulsion devices are emerging as a promising solution. Many studies have been conducted to predict the failure of ships, but most of them are mainly research on the main diesel engine of ships. As the ship's propulsion method changes, new data is needed to predict the failure of electric propulsion ships. In this paper aims to analyze the failure characteristics of the electric propulsion system in consideration of the difference in the type of failure between the internal diesel engine and the electric propulsion system. The ship's propulsion unit assumed a DC motor and a signal pattern for normal conditions and general failure modes, but the failure record of the electric propulsion device operated on the actual ship was not available, so it generated a failure signal for small electric motor equipment to identify the failure signal. Assuming unbalance, misalignment, and bearing failure, which are the primary failure modes of the ship's electric motor, a failure signal was generated using a "rotator vibration data generator," and the frequency band, size, and phase difference of the measured vibration signal were analyzed to analyze the characteristics of each failure condition. Finally, the characteristics of each failure condition were identified so that the signals according to the failure type could be classified.

Partial discharge(PD) in air insulated electric power systems is responsible for considerable power lossesfrom high voltage transmission lines. PD in air often leads to deterioration of insulation by the combined action of the discharge ions bombarding the surface and the action of chemical compounds that are formed by the discharge and may give rise to interference in ommunication systems. PD can indicate incipient failure. Thus understanding and classification of PD in air is very important to discern source of PD. In this paper, we investigated PD in air by using statical method. We classified air discharge with corona, surface discharge and cavity discharge by source of discharge. we used the mean pulse-height phase distribution $H_{qmean}(\psi)$, the max pulse-height phase distribution $H_{qmax}(\psi)$ , the pulse count phase distribution $H_n(\psi)$ and the max pulse height vs. repetition rate $H_{q}(n)$ for analysis PD pattern. We used statistical operators, such as skewness(S+. S-1, kurtosis(K+, K-), mean phase(AP+. AP-), cross-correlation factor(CC) and asymmetry from the distribution.

An artificial neural network(NN) technique is developed for hardware redundant sensor validation. Since the measurement space is a continuous space with many operating regions, it is difficult to train a NN to correctly detect failure in an accurate measurement system. A conventional backpropagation NN is modified to include an additional preprocessing layer that extracts classification features from scalar measurements. This feature extraction means transform the measurement space to parity space. The NN is independent of the state variable being measured, the instrument range, and the signal tolerance. This NN resembles the parity space approach to signal validation, except that analytical parity equations are unneeded and the NN pattern recognition capability is utilized for decision making.

High and intermittent loading cycles induce fatigue damage to transmission components, resulting in premature gearbox failure. To identify gearbox defects, numerous vibration-based diagnostics techniques, using several artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms, have recently been presented. In this paper, an optimized deep belief network (DBN) model for gearbox problem diagnosis was designed based on time-frequency visual pattern identification. To optimize the hyperparameters of the model, a particle swarm optimization (PSO) approach was integrated into the DBN. The proposed model was tested on two gearbox datasets: a wind turbine gearbox and an experimental gearbox. The optimized DBN model demonstrated strong and robust performance in classification accuracy. In addition, the accuracy of the generated datasets was compared using traditional ML and DL algorithms. Furthermore, the proposed model was evaluated on different partitions of the dataset. The results showed that, even with a small amount of sample data, the optimized DBN model achieved high accuracy in diagnosis.

The purpose of mathematics education is to develop the ability of transforming various problems in general situations into mathematics problems and then solving the problem mathematically. Various teaching-learning methods for improving the ability of the mathematics problem-solving can be tried. However, it is necessary to choose an appropriate teaching-learning method after figuring out students' level of understanding the mathematics learning or their problem-solving strategies. The error analysis is helpful for mathematics learning by providing teachers more efficient teaching strategies and by letting students know the cause of failure and then find a correct way. The following subjects were set up and analyzed. First, the error classification pattern was set up. Second, the errors in the solving process of the function problems were analyzed according to the error classification pattern. For this study, the survey was conducted to 90 first grade students of ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$high school in Chung-nam. They were asked to solve 8 problems in the function part. The following error classification patterns were set up by referring to the preceding studies about the error and the error patterns shown in the survey. (1)Misused Data, (2)Misinterpreted Language, (3)Logically Invalid Inference, (4)Distorted Theorem or Definition, (5)Unverified Solution, (6)Technical Errors, (7)Discontinuance of solving process The results of the analysis of errors due to the above error classification pattern were given below First, students don't understand the concept of the function completely. Even if they do, they lack in the application ability. Second, students make many mistakes when they interpret the mathematics problem into different types of languages such as equations, signals, graphs, and figures. Third, students misuse or ignore the data given in the problem. Fourth, students often give up or never try the solving process. The research on the error analysis should be done further because it provides the useful information for the teaching-learning process.

The semiconductor fabrication process is complex and time-consuming. There are sometimes errors in the process, which results in defective die on the wafer bin map (WBM). We can detect the faulty WBM by finding some patterns caused by dies. When one manually seeks the failure on WBM, it takes a long time due to the enormous number of WBMs. We suggest a two-step approach to discover the probable pattern on the WBMs in this paper. The first step is to separate the normal WBMs from the defective WBMs. We adapt a hierarchical clustering for de-noising, which nicely performs this work by wisely tuning the number of minimum points and the cutting height. Once declared as a faulty WBM, then it moves to the next step. In the second step, we classify the patterns among the defective WBMs. For this purpose, we extract features from the WBM. Then machine learning algorithm classifies the pattern. We use a real WBM data set (WM-811K) released by Taiwan semiconductor manufacturing company.
