Inductive learning for engineering design optimization
نویسندگان
چکیده
We applied inductive learning to a problem, engineering design optimization, for which the applicability of inductive learning is not immediately obvious. In this paper we describe how we were able to formulate two pieces of the optimization problem as inductive learning problems, and we describe some of the lessons that we learned in the process.

Learning to set up numerical optimizations of engineering designs
Gradient-based numerical optimization of complex engineering designs offers the promise of rapidly producing better designs. However, such methods generally assume that the objective function and constraint functions are continuous, smooth, and defined everywhere. Unfortunately, realistic simulators tend to violate these assumptions, making optimization unreliable. Several decisions that need t...

متن کاملLearning When Reformulation is Appropriate for Iterative Design
It is well known that search-space reformulation can improve the speed and reliability of numerical optimization in engineering design. We argue that the best choice of reformulation depends on the design goal, and present a technique for automatically constructing rules that map the design goal into a reformulation chosen from a space of possible reformulations. We tested our technique in the ...
متن کاملSIZE AND GEOMETRY OPTIMIZATION OF TRUSSES USING TEACHING-LEARNING-BASED OPTIMIZATION
A novel optimization algorithm named teaching-learning-based optimization (TLBO) algorithm and its implementation procedure were presented in this paper. TLBO is a meta-heuristic method, which simulates the phenomenon in classes. TLBO has two phases: teacher phase and learner phase. Students learn from teachers in teacher phases and obtain knowledge by mutual learning in learner phase. The suit...
متن کاملMulti-Objective Learning Automata for Design and Optimization a Two-Stage CMOS Operational Amplifier
In this paper, we propose an efficient approach to design optimization of analog circuits that is based on the reinforcement learning method. In this work, Multi-Objective Learning Automata (MOLA) is used to design a two-stage CMOS operational amplifier (op-amp) in 0.25μm technology. The aim is optimizing power consumption and area so as to achieve minimum Total Optimality Index (TOI), as a new...
