Performance of next generation susceptor is affected by temperature uniformity in order to produce reliably large-sized flat panel display. In this paper, we propose a learning estimation model of susceptor to predict and appropriately assess the temperature uniformity. Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) and Support Vector Machines (SVMs) are compared for the suitability of the learning estimation model. It is proved that SVMs provides more suitable verification of uniformity modeling than ANNs during each stage of temperature variations. Practical procedure for uniformity estimation of susceptor temperature was developed using the SVMs prediction algorithm.
