Abstract

We introduce a probabilistic extension of non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) by considering binary coded images as a probabilistic superposition of underlying continuous-valued elementary patterns. We provide an appropriate algorithm to solve the related optimization problem with non-negativity constraints which represents an extension of the well-known NMF-algorithm to binary-valued data sets. We demonstrate the performance of our method by applying it to the detection and characterization of hidden causes for failures during semi-conductor wafer processing. We decompose binary coded (pass/fail) wafer test data into underlying elementary failure patterns and study their influence on the performance of single wafers during testing.
