Reinforcement Learning-Based Scheduling for Dual-Arm Cluster Tool with Multifunctional Process Modules

IROS 2025

Cluster tools are vital in semiconductor manufacturing, where multifunctional process modules (MPMs) enhance flexibility and efficiency. However, variable MPMs and processing time in dual-arm cluster tools (DACTs) complicate scheduling, as variable MPM allocation patterns yield distinct productivity

Optimally Scheduling Dual-Arm Multi-Cluster Tools to Process Two Wafer Types

RA-L 2022

To satisfy the requirements of high-mix integrated-circuit chip production, multiple wafer types are grouped into a lot to be fabricated concurrently in a multi-cluster tool system. However, the existing studies do not solve the scheduling problem of multi-cluster tools with multiple wafer types bei

Towards Efficient Age Estimation by Embedding Potential Gender Features

ICASSP 2021accepted

Human age estimation from face image has drawn increasing research attention due to its many meaningful applications such as demographics analysis and surveillance monitoring. However, most existing methods directly extract age-specific features for age estimation and ignore age-related gender infor…
