Abstract

This disclosure provides a system and method for process optimization through similarity analysis, which selects at least one historical process data that is closest to the target process from historical dataset, adjusts parameters based on the historical process data to obtain the target process, and then verifies the accuracy of the target process to ensure the quality of products produced using the target process. Not only can it reduce the cost of testing and production risks, but also systematically adjust the weight of parameters to produce a suitable process for subsequent production, thereby shortening development time and improving yield.
