Using Design of Experiments Methods for Efficient Modeling & Simulation
Created:
| Last Modified:
By sequentially running High Performance Computer (HPC) simulations in Design of Experiments (DOE) blocks, one can quickly increase the accuracy of fast surrogate models. When sufficiently precise surrogates have been obtained, HPC resources can sooner be made available to other Modeling & Simulation (M&S) projects.
See how to:
- Understand why to create a designed experiment before attempting modeling and simulation
- Compare and contract traditional DOE vs. Space-Filling DOE
- Decide which types of design to use – Latin Hypercube or Space-Filling
- Create a Space-Filling design, explore it visually, apply regression and machine learning models, create and honest assessment that includes training/test/validation data
NOTE: Q&A is interspersed throughout the video.
