Within the ASIC development process, the phase of functional verification is a major bottleneck that affects the product time to market. A technique that decreases the time cost for reaching functional coverage closure is reducing the stimuli redundancy during the test regressions. This paper addresses such a solution and presents a novel, efficient, and scalable implementation that harnesses the power of artificial neural networks. This article outlines the concept strategy, highlights the framework structure, lists the experimental results, and underlines future research directions.
