Short summary
In this paper, a two-stage artificial intelligence framework for supporting the signal integrity compliant printed circuit board design process has been developed. This framework was applied to compare linear and non-linear data, which showed that the non-linear data source gains advantages over the linear data in terms of attainable regression accuracy. For the investigated application however, the linear model can be utilized directly or by utilizing transfer learning for adequate results.
