Guided wave-based structural health monitoring (GWSHM) with onboard transducers offers significant potential for the early diagnosis of damage in engineering structures. However, the practical deployment of deep learning models is often hindered by the limited availability of labelled experimental data and the high computational cost of generating large-scale high-fidelity simulation datasets.

The paper tackles the challenge of predicting multiple high‑dimensional physical fields that must satisfy linear equality constraints, a common scenario in physics‑informed machine learning. It critiques the conventional approach of deducing one field from others, showing its sensitivity to arbitrary choices and its impact on accuracy and uncertainty. To address this, the authors introduce a symmetric framework that first applies a row‑wise PCA to preserve constraints in a latent space, then trains a linearly‑constrained multi‑output Gaussian process using a specially parametrized kernel, and validate the method on population dynamics and CFD problems involving Reynolds stress tensors.

The paper investigates nonlinear dimensionality reduction for Bayesian optimisation (BO) by transforming high‑dimensional black‑box optimisation problems into a sequence of low‑dimensional latent‑space BO (LSBO) tasks. It extends earlier linear embedding approaches by using variational autoencoders (VAEs), deep metric loss, and adaptive retraining to better capture nonlinear structure, and couples LSBO with sequential domain reduction (SDR‑LSBO) to progressively narrow search domains. Experiments on GPU‑accelerated BoTorch with Matérn‑5/2 Gaussian‑process surrogates show that VAE‑based LSBO outperforms adaptive linear embeddings, and the authors provide a theoretical analysis of latent‑space error versus representation gap under PAC‑Bayes conditions.
