Summary:A method for determining a contribution of a processing apparatus to a fingerprint of a parameter across a substrate, the method including: obtaining a delta image which relates to a difference between a first pupil image associated with inspection of a first feature on the substrate and a second pupil image associated with inspection of a second feature on the substrate, wherein the first and second features have different dose sensitivities; determining a rate of change of the difference in response to a variation of a dose used to form the first and second features; selecting a plurality of pixels within the delta image having a rate of change above a predetermined threshold; and determining the contribution using the determined rate of change and the delta image restricted to the plurality of pixels.
