  • Publication number: 20240345546
    Abstract: For controlling a production system product version-specific training data sets are read in for each of multiple product versions. Each training data set comprises a design data set. The design data sets are fed into a machine learning module covering all product versions. An output signal is fed into both a first product version-specific machine learning module and also a second product version-specific machine learning module. The machine learning modules are jointly trained so that output data (O1) of the first machine learning module reproduces the performance values of the first product version and output data of the second machine learning module reproduces the performance values of the second product version. Then, a plurality of synthetic design data sets are generated and fed into the trained machine learning module. The resulting output signal is fed into the trained first machine learning module. A performance-optimized design data set is derived.

  • Publication number: 20240241487
    Abstract: A plurality of test data sets include: a first design data set specifying a design variant of a product; and first target values, which quantify target variables of the design variant which are to be optimized and ranked. Furthermore, a plurality of design evaluation modules for predicting target values on the basis of design data sets is provided. For each of the design evaluation modules, a second ranking of the first design data sets with respect to the predicted target values and a deviation of the second ranking from the first ranking are then determined. One design evaluation module is then selected in accordance with the determined deviations. Furthermore, a plurality of second design data sets is generated, and are predicted by the selected design evaluation module. A target-value-optimized design data set is then derived from the second design data sets and is output for the manufacturing of the product.

  • Publication number: 20220299984
    Abstract: A machine learning module is provided which is trained to generate from a design data record specifying a design variant of a product, a first performance signal quantifying a predictive performance of the design variant and a predictive uncertainty of the predictive performance. A variety of design data records each specifying a design variant of the product is generated. For a respective design data record, the following steps are performed: a first performance signal and a corresponding predictive uncertainty are generated, depending on the predictive uncertainty, a simulation yielding a second performance signal quantifying a simulated performance of the corresponding design variant is either run or skipped, and a performance value is derived from the second performance signal if the simulation is run or, otherwise, from the first performance signal. Depending on the derived performance values, a performance-optimizing design data record is determined and output to control the production plant.
