Routing Dense Layouts with History-Aware Offline Reinforcement Learning using LSTM

The paper introduces a history‑aware offline reinforcement learning policy that predicts iterative cost weights for routing in dense integrated circuit designs. By incorporating a lightweight LSTM and additional router features, the policy retains sequence context and improves convergence across various placement densities and guide qualities. Integrated into any cost‑based router with minimal changes, the approach reduces design rule violations by an average of 92% and cuts runtime by 10%.

Order Matters: Unveiling the Hidden Impact of Macro Placement Sequences via Proxy-Guided LLM Evolution

Macro placement is a fundamental step in modern chip physical design, playing a crucial role in determining the solution quality of high-dimensional combinatorial optimization problems. Despite recent advancements in machine learning for spatial coordinate determination, the temporal dimension of placement sequencing remains largely governed by static heuristics.
