How to Use 💡

1. Download/Clone

   • You can download the CSV file manually or use Hugging Face’s datasets library:

     from datasets import load_dataset
     
     dataset = load_dataset("username/SiN_Photonic_Waveguide_Loss_Efficiency")
     

2. Loading & Exploration

   • Load into your favorite Python environment (pandas, polars, etc.) to quickly explore the data distribution:

     import pandas as pd
     
     df = pd.read_csv("SiN_Photonic_Waveguide_Loss_Efficiency.csv")
     print(df.head())
     

3. Model Training

   • For tasks like waveguide loss prediction, treat the waveguide geometry/fabrication columns as input features, and the insertion_loss or propagation_loss columns as the labels or targets.
   • Example ML scenario:

     features = df[[
         "waveguide_width", "waveguide_height", "sidewall_roughness", 
         "wavelength", "polarization", "temperature"
     ]]
     target = df["propagation_loss"]
     
     # Then train a regression model, e.g., scikit-learn, XGBoost, etc.
     

4. Synthetic Data Augmentation

   • Use this synthetic dataset to supplement smaller real datasets

Caveats & Limitations ⚠️

• Synthetic Nature: While ranges are inspired by real-world photonic designs, actual values may differ based on specific foundries, tools, and processes.
• Statistical Simplifications: Not all real-world correlations or distributions (e.g., non-uniform doping profiles, advanced thermal effects) are captured.
• Measurement Noise: The uncertainty column does not fully replicate complex measurement artifacts.
