Combined control patterns corresponding to the actual control coordinates point (px) are formed by morphing a shape of the model control patterns PA, PB, PC having J pieces and corresponding to each morphing coordinates (pa, pb, pc), in the control pattern space CPS extended by the second type of input variable β and the output variable α. The morphing is performed according to weight between the morphing coordinates (pa, pb, pc) in the M-dimensional input space MPS and the actual control coordinates point (px). Combined control patterns Px are formed, and output variable value a corresponding to the input value (px) based on the combined control pattern Px is calculated.

A physical verification tool for debugging ESD ground path resistance violations in ESD protection circuits. The ESD ground path is modeled and partitioned into component path structures (polygons) that are disposed in associated design layers. A total ESD ground path resistance is then calculated and compared with a maximum allowable resistance value defined by an ESD protection rule. When the ESD ground path is non-compliant, a resistance contribution ratio is determined for each polygon and/or for each layer, for example, by applying nodal analysis to the ESD ground path model. Resistance contribution ratios are then calculated for each polygon and/or for each layer, and most-problematic polygons and/or layers are identified by way of having the highest resistance contribution ratio values. A report (e.g., a table or graphical visualization) is then generated that prioritizes or emphasizes (e.g., by way of a bolder contrast or brighter color) the most-problematic layer and/or polygon.
