Parametric Modeling of EM Behaviors of Microwave Components Using Combined Neural Networks and Pole-Residue Transfer Functions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Parametric modeling of electromagnetic (EM) behaviors has become important for EM design optimizations of microwave components.The EM based design, such as design optimization, what if analysis and yield-driven design, can be time consuming because it usually requires repetitive EM simulations with varying values of geometrical parameters as design variables.Parametric models can be developed from the information of EM responses as functions of geometrical parameters.The developed parametric models allow faster simulations and optimizations with varying values of geometrical parameters and subsequently can be implemented in high-level circuit and system design optimizations.This thesis proposes a novel technique to develop combined neural network and pole-residue-based transfer function models for parametric modeling of EM behaviors of microwave components.In this technique, neural networks are trained to learn the relationships between pole/residues of the transfer functions and geometrical parameters.The orders of the pole-residue transfer functions may vary over different regions of geometrical parameters.We develop a pole-residue tracking technique to solve this order-changing problem.After the proposed modeling process, the trained model can be used to provide accurate and fast predictions of the EM behavior of microwave components with geometrical parameters as variables.An advanced pole-residue tracking technique is proposed to exploit sensitivity information to solve the challenges of pole-residue tracking especially when the amount of training data are reduced and/or the geometrical step sizes between the data samples are enlarged.The proposed technique takes advantages of sensitivity i information to split one pole into two separate new poles to achieve the increase of the orders of the transfer functions and ultimately form transfer functions of a constant order over the entire region of geometrical parameters.The proposed technique addresses the challenges of pole-residue tracking when training data are limited.As a further advancement, we introduce EM sensitivity analysis into the poleresidue-based neuro-transfer function modeling technique.The purpose is to increase the model accuracy by utilizing EM sensitivity information and to speedup the model development process by reducing the number of training data required for developing the model.The proposed parametric model consists of the original and adjoint pole-residue based neuro-TF models.New formulations are derived for calculating the second order derivatives for training the adjoint pole-residue based neuro-TF model.By exploiting the sensitivity information, the proposed technique can further speed up the model development process over the existing pole-residue parametric modeling method without using sensitivity analysis.The proposed parametric modeling techniques in this thesis are demonstrated by several microwave examples.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
