Utility
Methods and systems for relating features with labels in electronics
3 Oct 23
A method comprising, by a processing unit and a memory: obtaining a training set of data; dividing sets of data into a plurality of groups, wherein all sets of data for which feature values meet at least one similarity criterion, are in the same group, storing in a reduced training set of data, for each group, at least one aggregated set of data, wherein, for a plurality of the groups, a number of aggregated sets of data is less than a number of the sets of data of the group, wherein the reduced training set of data is suitable to be used in a classification algorithm for determining a relationship between the at least one label and the features of the electronic items, thereby reducing computation complexity when processing the reduced training set of data, compared to processing the training set of data.

Utility
Methods and systems for detecting defects on an electronic assembly
16 May 23
A method of identifying defects in an electronic assembly, comprising, by a processing unit, obtaining a grid of nodes representative of a location of electronic units of an electronic assembly, wherein each node is neighboured by at most eight other nodes, wherein a first plurality of nodes represents failed electronic units according to at least one test criterion, and a second plurality of nodes represents passing electronic units according to the least one first test criterion, based on the grid, determining at least one first and second straight lines, and attempting to connect the first and second straight lines into a new line, wherein if at least one node from the new line belongs to the second plurality of nodes, concluding that an electronic unit represented by the node on the grid is a failed electronic unit, thereby facilitating identification of a failed electronic unit on the substrate.
