“…The surrogate model offers an efficient solution for tackling such problems, particularly when establishing a complex or computationally expensive forward model is challenging. Some researchers have successfully utilized artificial neural networks in optical scatterometry [20][21][22]. The NN-based surrogate model has the potential for efficient and repeatable calculations, which is employed in this work.…”

“…The latter can retrieve complete structural parameters but requires a complex model and laborious numerical simulations which make the evaluation process difficult and timeconsuming. A possible compromise would be the use of machine learning, which was already successfully applied to the evaluation process in optical scatterometry [4]. Training a machine learning model for image evaluation initially also requires high computational costs, but once the training is finished, results are achieved fast and reliable.…”
