# Geo-Layout Transformer 🚀
|
||||
|
||||
**A Unified, Self-Supervised Foundation Model for Physical Design Analysis**
|
||||
|

---
|
||||
|
||||
## ✨ Highlights
|
||||
|
||||
- **Unified foundation model** for diverse physical design analysis tasks
|
||||
- **Hybrid GNN + Transformer** architecture capturing local-to-global layout semantics
|
||||
- **Self-supervised pretraining** on unlabeled GDSII/OASIS for strong transferability
|
||||
- **Modular task heads** for easy adaptation (e.g., hotspot detection, connectivity)
|
||||
|
||||
## 🖥️ Supported Systems
|
||||
|
||||
- **Python**: 3.9+
|
||||
- **OS**: macOS 13+/Apple Silicon, Linux (Ubuntu 20.04/22.04). Windows via **WSL2** recommended
|
||||
- **Frameworks**: PyTorch, PyTorch Geometric (with CUDA optional)
|
||||
- **EDA I/O**: GDSII/OASIS (via `klayout` Python API)
|
||||
|
||||
## 1. Vision
|
||||
|
||||
The **Geo-Layout Transformer** is a research project aimed at creating a paradigm shift in Electronic Design Automation (EDA) for physical design. Instead of relying on a fragmented set of heuristic-based tools, we are building a single, unified foundation model that understands the deep, contextual "language" of semiconductor layouts.

||||
|
||||
4. **Task-Specific Heads**: The final, context-aware embeddings from the Transformer are fed into simple, lightweight neural network "heads" for specific downstream tasks. This modular design allows the core model to be adapted to new applications with minimal effort.
