Patent number: 11886779Abstract: A system and method for accelerated simulation setup includes receiving a description of a new problem for simulation, extracting input data and output data of previous simulation results, generating a representation of data based on the extracted input data and output data, and quantifying similarities between the new problem and the extracted input data and output data to identify a candidate simulation for the new problem. A machine learning component infers a solution output for the new problem based on extrapolation or interpolation of outputs of the candidate simulation, thereby conserving resources by eliminating a simulation generation and execution. Alternatively, an efficient simulation setup can be generated using the queried knowledge, input variables, and input parameters corresponding to the candidate simulation.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2018Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: Siemens Industry Software NVInventors: Lucia Mirabella, Sanjeev Srivastava, Livio Dalloro

Publication number: 20240028868Abstract: System and method for logic rule formula induction on knowledge graphs for engineering system designs include receiving plurality of knowledge graphs for an engineering system. For a disconnected knowledge graph, agglomerative beam search is constrained to edges connected from node of interest, and candidate formulas are generated representing a respective edge found by the beam search engine, each formula constrained by a requirement of at least two arguments for defined formula chain length. Formula evaluation establishes whether each candidate formula is valid. Top ranked formulas are selected from the candidate formulas according to defined criteria. For well-connected graphs, a graph neural network is trained to predict first class for a query graph and second class for distractor graph. Counterfactual solver engine solves for minimum number of edits to query graph toward distractor graph which transforms predicted first class of the query graph to predicted second class.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2020Publication date: January 25, 2024Applicant: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Arun Ramamurthy, Yuyu Zhang, Sanjeev Srivastava, Livio Dalloro

Patent number: 10534875Abstract: A method of partitioning a model to facilitate printing of the model on a 3D printer includes identifying partition sensitive locations on the model and creating a binary tree with a root note representative of the model. An iterative partitioning process is applied to divide the model into objects by selecting a node of the binary tree without any children nodes, identifying a portion of the model corresponding to the node, and determining candidate cutting planes on the portion of the model based on the partition sensitive locations. During the process, analytic hierarchical processing (AHP) is applied to select an optimal cutting plane from the candidate cutting planes based on partitioning criteria. The optimal cutting plane is used to segment the portion of the model into sub-portions, and two children nodes representative of these sub-portions are created on the node of the binary tree.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 2016Date of Patent: January 14, 2020Assignee: SIEMENS INDUSTRY SOFTWARE INC.Inventors: Erhan Arisoy, Suraj Ravi Musuvathy, Lucia Mirabella, Sanjeev Srivastava, Livio Dalloro
