Multi-fidelity optimization via surrogate modelling

open access: yes, 2007
This paper demonstrates the application of correlated Gaussian process based approximations to optimization where multiple levels of analysis are available, using an extension to the geostatistical method of co-kriging.

Automatic surrogate model type selection during the optimization of expensive black-box problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The use of Surrogate Based Optimization (SBO) has become commonplace for optimizing expensive black-box simulation codes. A popular SBO method is the Efficient Global Optimization (EGO) approach. However, the performance of SBO methods critically depends

Sunshine Duration in Brazil From Meteosat (1983–2020): Climatology, Variability and Long‐Term Trends

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Using nearly four decades of Meteosat satellite data (1983–2020), this study presents a country‐wide climatology of sunshine duration (SDU) in Brazil. The results reveal marked regional contrasts, dominant modes of variability, and significant long‐term trends, providing new information on the most relevant meteorological systems that influence SDU and

Spatiotemporal Evolution of Hydroclimatic Variables in the Brazilian Semi‐Arid Region Through the Aridity Index and Susceptibility to Desertification

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Over the past 60 years, noticeable changes have been observed in the main hydroclimatological variables, driven by both natural and anthropogenic factors. In the context of climate change, such behaviour may adversely affect the state's economic activities, as well as increase the recurrence of extreme events in the region.

On the Performance of Neural Network Residual Kriging in Radio Environment Mapping

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
This paper addresses the research question: can feedforward neural network (FFNN)-based path loss modeling improve the accuracy of Kriging? Radio propagation factors, which consist of path loss and shadowing, can accurately be obtained via crowdsourcing ...

Optimized Weighted Ensemble Approach for Enhancing Gold Mineralization Prediction

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
The economic value of a mineral resource is highly dependent on the accuracy of grade estimations. Accurate predictions of mineral grades can help businesses decide whether to invest in a mining project and optimize mining operations to maximize the ...

Long‐Term Variability and Spatial Differentiation of the Frost‐Free Period in Iceland

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Warming in Iceland (May–September) is expressed as fewer Tmin < 0°C days in the interior and more Tmin > 0°C days along the coasts. ABSTRACT Climate change in subarctic regions leads to significant transformations in thermal conditions; however, the long‐term variability of the frost‐free season (FFS)—and consequently, the growing period—remains poorly

Structural Optimization of 3D Braided Tungsten–Copper Composites via Active Learning and Finite Element Simulation

open access: yesMaterials Genome Engineering Advances, EarlyView.
An uncertainty‐aware FEM–GPR active learning framework efficiently explores the design space of 3D braided W–Cu composites, identifying architectures with higher yield strength and preserved electrical conductivity, whereas SHAP interpretation highlights yarn spacing in the braid plane as the key structural factor controlling composite performance ...
