Model Guided Sampling Optimization for Low-dimensional Problems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Optimization of very expensive black-box functions requires utilization of maximum information gathered by the process of optimization. Model Guided Sampling Optimization (MGSO) forms a more robust alternative to Jones’ Gaussian-process-based EGO algorithm. Instead of EGO’s maximizing expected improvement, the MGSO uses sampling the probability of improvement which is shown to be helpful against trapping in local minima. Further, the MGSO can reach close-to-optimum solutions faster than standard optimization algorithms on low dimensional or smooth problems.

DAMAGE IDENTIFICATION BY USING MODAL EXPANSION AND TOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION IN THREE DIMENSIONAL ELASTICITY PROBLEMS
In this paper, topology optimization is utilized for damage detection in three dimensional elasticity problems. In addition, two mode expansion techniques are used to derive unknown modal data from measured data identified by installed sensors. Damages in the model are assumed as reduction of mass and stiffness in the discretized finite elements. The Solid Isotropic Material with Penalization (...
متن کاملArnoldi-based Sampling for High-dimensional Optimization using Imperfect Data
We present a sampling strategy suitable for optimization problems characterized by high-dimensional design spaces and noisy outputs. Such outputs can arise, for example, in time-averaged objectives that depend on chaotic states. The proposed sampling method is based on a generalization of Arnoldi’s method used in Krylov iterative methods. We show that Arnoldi-based sampling can effectively esti...

متن کاملA Classifier-guided Sampling Method for Computationally Expensive, Discrete-variable, Discontinuous Design Problems
Metamodel-based design is a well-established method for providing fast and accurate approximations of expensive computer models to enable faster optimization and rapid design space exploration. Traditionally, a metamodel is developed by fitting a surface to a set of training points that are generated with an expensive computer model or simulation. A requirement of this process is that the funct...
