SUMMARY:Late Breaking Results: Customized Diffusion Model Empowered by Het
 erogeneous Graph Network for Effective Floorplanning
DESCRIPTION:Xinglin Zheng, Hao Gu, Keyu Peng, and Youwen Wang (Southeast U
 niversity); Wenxing Zhu (Fuzhou University); and Ziran Zhu (Southeast Univ
 ersity)\n\nIn this paper, we propose a customized diffusion model to direc
 tly generate high-quality initial floorplans. \nBy leveraging a classical 
 analytical-based floorplanner on top of this initial floorplan, the final 
 floorplanning results are significantly improved.\nTo enhance feature extr
 action, a heterogeneous graph neural network (HGNN) is developed to explic
 itly incorporate block-to-block and pin-to-block relationships from the ne
 tlist during the diffusion process.\nAdditionally, a novel guidance sampli
 ng function is introduced to optimize both wirelength and overlap, effecti
 vely reducing the required sampling steps while maintaining competitive in
 itial solutions.\nExperimental results demonstrate that integrating our pr
 oposed diffusion model with an advanced analytical-based floorplanner achi
 eves at least 4.8\% reduction in runtime and 3.0\% reduction in HPWL compa
 red to the original floorplanner and other diffusion-based methods.\n\n
