Reducing the Design Space of Standard Electromagnetic Devices Using Bayesian Response Surfaces
Linda Wang, David Alister Lowther · IEEE Transactions on Magnetics · 2010
This work proposes a procedure that reduces the volume of the design space of a standard electromagnetic device given a set of existing designs for the same type of device. This is done by building probability models of the device's design variables using Bayesian response surfaces. Our procedure provides a design space that contains a satisfactory design with a probability ofP, wherePis specified by the designer to be between 0 and 1. This design space can then be searched with optimization algorithms.
