Job Description: 

This internship will examine Transformer-based Deep Learning Classification Methods for semiconductor defect dispositioning. In the literature in recent years, Visual Image Transformer-based classification networks have been proposed to provide additional model capabilities beyond what traditional Convolutional Neural Networks can provide. In addition to the possibility of increased accuracy, Transformer-based networks can execute object detection tasks and potentially do so with self-supervised training.

A deliverable from the internship will be to select potential Transformer Networks from the literature and evaluate them alongside the traditional approaches our team employs. The intern can use data sets from established projects. Conditional Classification Models are another area of potential benefit for our defect classification work.

Traditionally, models require retraining in order to contextualize the model for a given product. By leveraging a conditional classification approach, it may be possible to retrain only those weights of the model relevant to the product topology changes, yet reuse the other common weights for other detection aspects. This would reduce the training time of the model and reduce overall cost of ownership.

Lastly, the internship will include examining explainability tools beyond the traditional GradCam methods and look at enhanced GradCam and deconvolutional methods to better understand network attention.

Qualifications:

• Candidate must be currently enrolled in an accredited college or university in industrial engineering, electrical engineering, or computer science/engineering, or similar degree program.

• Must have successfully completed up to and including year 2 of a PhD program.

• Must be familiar with deep learning program environments such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, ONNX, and OpenVINO.

• Must be proficient in Python, and visualization packages therein.

• Candidates with prior experience in evaluating deep learning methods for industrially relevant problems are preferred.
