1. A method of physical synthesis for a circuit design, the method comprising:
- determining, using a processor, features relating to a signal path of the circuit design not meeting a timing requirement;
processing the features through a first neural network model using the processor, wherein the first neural network model is trained to indicate an effectiveness of a first physical synthesis optimization; and
selectively performing, using the processor, the first physical synthesis optimization for the signal path based upon a result from the first neural network model.
