SINA: A Fully Automated Circuit Schematic Image to Netlist Generator Using Artificial Intelligence

Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) have revolutionized Electronic Design Automation (EDA), particularly through Large Language Models (LLMs) for circuit design tasks. However, their application to analog and mixed-signal domains remains limited by the lack of machine-readable representations of existing circuit design knowledge. Circuit schematic images found in research manuscripts, textbooks, and websites constitute a vast repository of validated designs; however, these visual representations cannot be directly processed by EDA tools. Converting them into machine-readable netlists is essential for enabling simulation, verification, and building comprehensive databases for AI-based models. Current conversion methods lack generalization across both Integrated Circuit (IC) and Printed Circuit Board (PCB) level schematics. Moreover, they struggle with component recognition and connectivity inference, and fail to distinguish between connected junctions and crossing wires. In this paper, we propose SINA, an open-source circuit schematic image-to-netlist generator. SINA is a fully automated pipeline that integrates deep learning for robust component detection, connected-component labeling for accurate connectivity inference, Optical Character Recognition (OCR) for component reference designator extraction, and a Vision-Language Model (VLM) for reliable reference designator assignment. SINA handles both IC- and PCB-level schematics and incorporates dedicated crossing-wires detection to differentiate wire intersections from connections. We validate the correctness of the generated netlists using graph isomorphism techniques. Our experiments demonstrate an overall netlist generation accuracy of 96.67%, which is 2.72x higher compared to state-of-the-art approaches.

Synthetic Data Pipelines for Adaptive, Mission-Ready Militarized Humanoids

Omnia presents a synthetic data driven pipeline to accelerate the training, validation, and deployment readiness of militarized humanoids. The approach converts first-person spatial observations captured from point-of-view recordings, smart glasses, augmented reality headsets, and spatial browsing workflows into scalable, mission-specific synthetic datasets for humanoid autonomy. By generating large volumes of high-fidelity simulated scenarios and pairing them with automated labeling and model training, the pipeline enables rapid iteration on perception, navigation, and decision-making capabilities without the cost, risk, or time constraints of extensive field trials. The resulting datasets can be tuned quickly for new operational environments and threat conditions, supporting both baseline humanoid performance and advanced subsystems such as multimodal sensing, counter-detection survivability, and CBRNE-relevant reconnaissance behaviors. This work targets faster development cycles and improved robustness in complex, contested settings by exposing humanoid systems to broad scenario diversity early in the development process.
