Progressive Validity Metamodel Trust Region OptimizationThomson, Quinn Parker 26 February 2009 (has links)
The goal of this work was to develop metamodels of the MDO framework piMDO and provide new research in metamodeling strategies. The theory of existing metamodels is presented and implementation details are given. A new trust region scheme --- metamodel trust region optimization (MTRO) --- was developed. This method uses a progressive level of minimum validity in order to reduce the number of sample points required for the optimization process. Higher levels of validity require denser point distributions, but the reducing size of the region during the optimization process mitigates an increase the number of points required. New metamodeling strategies include: inherited optimal latin hypercube sampling, hybrid latin hypercube sampling, and kriging with BFGS. MTRO performs better than traditional trust region methods for single discipline problems and is competitive against other MDO architectures when used with a CSSO algorithm. Advanced metamodeling methods proved to be inefficient in trust region methods.

From Parameter Tuning to Dynamic Heuristic SelectionSemendiak, Yevhenii 18 June 2020 (has links)
The importance of balance between exploration and exploitation plays a crucial role while solving combinatorial optimization problems. This balance is reached by two general techniques: by using an appropriate problem solver and by setting its proper parameters. Both problems were widely studied in the past and the research process continues up until now. The latest studies in the field of automated machine learning propose merging both problems, solving them at design time, and later strengthening the results at runtime. To the best of our knowledge, the generalized approach for solving the parameter setting problem in heuristic solvers has not yet been proposed. Therefore, the concept of merging heuristic selection and parameter control have not been introduced.
In this thesis, we propose an approach for generic parameter control in meta-heuristics by means of reinforcement learning (RL). Making a step further, we suggest a technique for merging the heuristic selection and parameter control problems and solving them at runtime using RL-based hyper-heuristic. The evaluation of the proposed parameter control technique on a symmetric traveling salesman problem (TSP) revealed its applicability by reaching the performance of tuned in online and used in isolation underlying meta-heuristic. Our approach provides the results on par with the best underlying heuristics with tuned parameters.:1 Introduction 1

Design Optimization in Gas Turbines using Machine Learning : A study performed for Siemens Energy AB / Designoptimisering i gasturbiner med hjälp av maskininlärningMathias, Berggren, Daniel, Sonesson January 2021 (has links)
In this thesis, the authors investigate how machine learning can be utilized for speeding up the design optimization process of gas turbines. The Finite Element Analysis (FEA) steps of the design process are examined if they can be replaced with machine learning algorithms. The study is done using a component with given constraints that are provided by Siemens Energy AB. With this component, two approaches to using machine learning are tested. One utilizes design parameters, i.e. raw floating-point numbers, such as the height and width. The other technique uses a high dimensional mesh as input. It is concluded that using design parameters with surrogate models is a viable way of performing design optimization while mesh input is currently not. Results from using different amount of data samples are presented and evaluated.

Evoluční algoritmy pro vícekriteriální optimalizaci / Evolutionary Algorithms for Multiobjective OptimizationPilát, Martin January 2013 (has links)
Multi-objective evolutionary algorithms have gained a lot of atten- tion in the recent years. They have proven to be among the best multi-objective optimizers and have been used in many industrial ap- plications. However, their usability is hindered by the large number of evaluations of the objective functions they require. These can be expensive when solving practical tasks. In order to reduce the num- ber of objective function evaluations, surrogate models can be used. These are a simple and fast approximations of the real objectives. In this work we present the results of research made between the years 2009 and 2013. We present a multi-objective evolutionary algo- rithm with aggregate surrogate model, its newer version, which also uses a surrogate model for the pre-selection of individuals. In the next part we discuss the problem of selection of a particular type of model. We show which characteristics of the various models are im- portant and desirable and provide a framework which combines sur- rogate modeling with meta-learning. Finally, in the last part, we ap- ply multi-objective optimization to the problem of hyper-parameters tuning. We show that additional objectives can make finding of good parameters for classifiers faster. 1

Surrogate Models for Transonic Aerodynamics for Multidisciplinary Design OptimizationSegee, Molly Catherine 06 June 2016 (has links)
Multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) requires many designs to be evaluated while searching for an optimum. As a result, the calculations done to evaluate the designs must be quick and simple to have a reasonable turn-around time. This makes aerodynamic calculations in the transonic regime difficult. Running computational fluid dynamics (CFD) calculations within the MDO code would be too computationally expensive. Instead, CFD is used outside the MDO to find two-dimensional aerodynamic properties of a chosen airfoil shape, BACJ, at a number of points over a range of thickness-to-chord ratios, free-stream Mach numbers, and lift coefficients. These points are used to generate surrogate models which can be used for the two-dimensional aerodynamic calculations required by the MDO computational design environment. Strip theory is used to relate these two-dimensional results to the three-dimensional wing. Models are developed for the center of pressure location, the lift curve slope, the wave drag, and the maximum allowable lift coefficient before buffet. These models have good agreement with the original CFD results for the airfoil. The models are integrated into the aerodynamic and aeroelastic sections of the MDO code. / Master of Science

Physics-informed Hyper-networksAbhinav Prithviraj Rao (18865099) 23 June 2024 (has links)
<p dir="ltr">There is a growing trend towards the development of parsimonious surrogate models for studying physical phenomena. While they typically offer less accuracy, these models bypass the computational costs of numerical methods, usually by multiple orders of magnitude, allowing statistical applications such as sensitivity analysis, stochastic treatments, parametric problems, and uncertainty quantification. Researchers have explored generalized surrogate frameworks leveraging Gaussian processes, various basis function expansions, support vector machines, and neural networks. Dynamical fields, represented through time-dependent partial differential equation, pose a particular hardship for existing frameworks due to their high dimensional representation, and possibly multi-scale solutions.</p><p dir="ltr">In this work, we present a novel architecture for solving time-dependent partial differential equations using co-ordinate neural networks and time-marching updates through hyper-networks. We show that it provides a temporally meshed and spatially mesh-free solution which are causally coherent as justified through a theoretical treatment of Lie groups. We showcase results on some benchmark problems in computational physics while discussing their performance against similar physics-informed approaches like physics-informed DeepOnets and Physics informed neural networks.</p>

Optimisation robuste multiobjectifs par modèles de substitution / Multiobjective robust optimization via surrogate modelsBaudoui, Vincent 07 March 2012 (has links)
Cette thèse traite de l'optimisation sous incertitude de fonctions coûteuses dans le cadre de la conception de systèmes aéronautiques.Nous développons dans un premier temps une stratégie d'optimisation robuste multiobjectifs par modèles de substitution. Au-delà de fournir une représentation plus rapide des fonctions initiales, ces modèles facilitent le calcul de la robustesse des solutions par rapport aux incertitudes du problème. L'erreur de modélisation est maîtrisée grâce à une approche originale d'enrichissement de plan d'expériences qui permet d'améliorer conjointement plusieurs modèles au niveau des régions de l'espace possiblement optimales.Elle est appliquée à la minimisation des émissions polluantes d'une chambre de combustion de turbomachine dont les injecteurs peuvent s'obstruer de façon imprévisible.Nous présentons ensuite une méthode heuristique dédiée à l'optimisation robuste multidisciplinaire. Elle repose sur une gestion locale de la robustesse au sein des disciplines exposées à des paramètres incertains, afin d'éviter la mise en place d'une propagation d'incertitudes complète à travers le système. Un critère d'applicabilité est proposé pour vérifier a posteriori le bien-fondé de cette approche à partir de données récoltées lors de l'optimisation. La méthode est mise en œuvre sur un cas de conception avion où la surface de l'empennage vertical n'est pas connue avec précision. / This PhD thesis deals with the optimization under uncertainty of expensive functions in the context of aeronautical systems design.First, we develop a multiobjective robust optimization strategy based on surrogate models.Beyond providing a faster representation of the initial functions, these models facilitate the computation of the solutions' robustness with respect to the problem uncertainties. The modeling error is controlled through a new design of experiments enrichment approach that allows improving several models concurrently in the possibly optimal regions of the search space. This strategy is applied to the pollutant emission minimization of a turbomachine combustion chamber whose injectors can clog unpredictably. We subsequently present a heuristic method dedicated to multidisciplinary robust optimization. It relies on local robustness management within disciplines exposed to uncertain parameters, in order to avoid the implementation of a full uncertainty propagation through the system. An applicability criterion is proposed to check the validity of this approach a posteriori using data collected during the optimization. This methodology is applied to an aircraft design case where the surface of the vertical tail is not known accurately.

Surrogate-Assisted Evolutionary Algorithms / Les algorithmes évolutionnaires à la base de méta-modèles scalairesLoshchilov, Ilya 08 January 2013 (has links)
Les Algorithmes Évolutionnaires (AEs) ont été très étudiés en raison de leur capacité à résoudre des problèmes d'optimisation complexes en utilisant des opérateurs de variation adaptés à des problèmes spécifiques. Une recherche dirigée par une population de solutions offre une bonne robustesse par rapport à un bruit modéré et la multi-modalité de la fonction optimisée, contrairement à d'autres méthodes d'optimisation classiques telles que les méthodes de quasi-Newton. La principale limitation de AEs, le grand nombre d'évaluations de la fonction objectif,pénalise toutefois l'usage des AEs pour l'optimisation de fonctions chères en temps calcul.La présente thèse se concentre sur un algorithme évolutionnaire, Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy (CMA-ES), connu comme un algorithme puissant pour l'optimisation continue boîte noire. Nous présentons l'état de l'art des algorithmes, dérivés de CMA-ES, pour résoudre les problèmes d'optimisation mono- et multi-objectifs dans le scénario boîte noire.Une première contribution, visant l'optimisation de fonctions coûteuses, concerne l'approximation scalaire de la fonction objectif. Le meta-modèle appris respecte l'ordre des solutions (induit par la valeur de la fonction objectif pour ces solutions); il est ainsi invariant par transformation monotone de la fonction objectif. L'algorithme ainsi défini, saACM-ES, intègre étroitement l'optimisation réalisée par CMA-ES et l'apprentissage statistique de meta-modèles adaptatifs; en particulier les meta-modèles reposent sur la matrice de covariance adaptée par CMA-ES. saACM-ES préserve ainsi les deux propriété clé d'invariance de CMA-ES: invariance i) par rapport aux transformations monotones de la fonction objectif; et ii) par rapport aux transformations orthogonales de l'espace de recherche.L'approche est étendue au cadre de l'optimisation multi-objectifs, en proposant deux types de meta-modèles (scalaires). La première repose sur la caractérisation du front de Pareto courant (utilisant une variante mixte de One Class Support Vector Machone (SVM) pour les points dominés et de Regression SVM pour les points non-dominés). La seconde repose sur l'apprentissage d'ordre des solutions (rang de Pareto) des solutions. Ces deux approches sont intégrées à CMA-ES pour l'optimisation multi-objectif (MO-CMA-ES) et nous discutons quelques aspects de l'exploitation de meta-modèles dans le contexte de l'optimisation multi-objectif.Une seconde contribution concerne la conception d'algorithmes nouveaux pour l'optimi\-sation mono-objectif, multi-objectifs et multi-modale, développés pour comprendre, explorer et élargir les frontières du domaine des algorithmes évolutionnaires et CMA-ES en particulier. Spécifiquement, l'adaptation du système de coordonnées proposée par CMA-ES est coupléeà une méthode adaptative de descente coordonnée par coordonnée. Une stratégie adaptative de redémarrage de CMA-ES est proposée pour l'optimisation multi-modale. Enfin, des stratégies de sélection adaptées aux cas de l'optimisation multi-objectifs et remédiant aux difficultés rencontrées par MO-CMA-ES sont proposées. / Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) have received a lot of attention regarding their potential to solve complex optimization problems using problem-specific variation operators. A search directed by a population of candidate solutions is quite robust with respect to a moderate noise and multi-modality of the optimized function, in contrast to some classical optimization methods such as quasi-Newton methods. The main limitation of EAs, the large number of function evaluations required, prevents from using EAs on computationally expensive problems, where one evaluation takes much longer than 1 second.The present thesis focuses on an evolutionary algorithm, Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy (CMA-ES), which has become a standard powerful tool for continuous black-box optimization. We present several state-of-the-art algorithms, derived from CMA-ES, for solving single- and multi-objective black-box optimization problems.First, in order to deal with expensive optimization, we propose to use comparison-based surrogate (approximation) models of the optimized function, which do not exploit function values of candidate solutions, but only their quality-based ranking.The resulting self-adaptive surrogate-assisted CMA-ES represents a tight coupling of statistical machine learning and CMA-ES, where a surrogate model is build, taking advantage of the function topology given by the covariance matrix adapted by CMA-ES. This allows to preserve two key invariance properties of CMA-ES: invariance with respect to i). monotonous transformation of the function, and ii). orthogonal transformation of the search space. For multi-objective optimization we propose two mono-surrogate approaches: i). a mixed variant of One Class Support Vector Machine (SVM) for dominated points and Regression SVM for non-dominated points; ii). Ranking SVM for preference learning of candidate solutions in the multi-objective space. We further integrate these two approaches into multi-objective CMA-ES (MO-CMA-ES) and discuss aspects of surrogate-model exploitation.Second, we introduce and discuss various algorithms, developed to understand, explore and expand frontiers of the Evolutionary Computation domain, and CMA-ES in particular. We introduce linear time Adaptive Coordinate Descent method for non-linear optimization, which inherits a CMA-like procedure of adaptation of an appropriate coordinate system without losing the initial simplicity of Coordinate Descent.For multi-modal optimization we propose to adaptively select the most suitable regime of restarts of CMA-ES and introduce corresponding alternative restart strategies.For multi-objective optimization we analyze case studies, where original parent selection procedures of MO-CMA-ES are inefficient, and introduce reward-based parent selection strategies, focused on a comparative success of generated solutions.

Computer experiments: design, modeling and integrationQian, Zhiguang 19 May 2006 (has links)
The use of computer modeling is fast increasing in almost every
scientific, engineering and business arena. This dissertation
investigates some challenging issues in design, modeling and
analysis of computer experiments, which will consist of four major
parts. In the first part, a new approach is developed to combine
data from approximate and detailed simulations to build a
surrogate model based on some stochastic models. In the second
part, we propose some Bayesian hierarchical Gaussian process
models to integrate data from different types of experiments. The
third part concerns the development of latent variable models for
computer experiments with multivariate response with application
to data center temperature modeling. The last chapter is devoted
to the development of nested space-filling designs for multiple
experiments with different levels of accuracy.
