Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Due to fanout in a circuit, the speed efficiency of existing path delay fault simulation algorithms suffers from redundant evaluations of many circuit nodes in the backtrace process of every simulation pass. This paper introduces two new concepts-subpath event sensitizability (SES) and subpath event sensitizability robustness (SESR). Based on these new concepts, the authors propose a new procedure for path delay fault simulation whereby each node of the simulated circuit is evaluated only once per simulation pass in the backtrace process. Experiments with the ISCAS'85 benchmark circuits show that the procedure accelerates path delay fault simulation significantly. The proposed procedure can be implemented for parallel pattern path delay fault simulation. The concepts of SES and SESR can also improve both CPU time and memory efficiency of path delay fault simulation if only a subset of all the paths is considered.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
