  • Abstract
    In this paper we discuss some of the existing response surface modeling techniques currently used for TCAD purposes and bring to the readers´ attention a Bayesian framework for training feed-forward neural networks. We assess the model performances of different models by studying a 0.25 μm nMOS transistor. We show that the Bayesian learning neural network modeling may successfully replaces traditional models in particular cases
