Data mining is the process of extracting previously-unknown interesting patterns from large quantities of data. Data mining is particularly applicable to problems that involve discovering trends, anomalies and/or dependencies in the data. Many such problems occur in the context of EDA, e.g., in functional verification, timing analysis, physical verification, test, debug and diagnosis. This session begins with an overview of data mining techniques, the types of problems they solve and their potential applications in EDA. The introduction is followed by two talks that provide in-depth discussion in specific areas. The first focuses on test and functional verification. It overviews promising applications and shares experiences implementing a data-mining-based methodology in several industrial applications. The second focuses on physical verification and addresses practical applicability and limitations of data-mining using hot-spot detection as an example.
