A Multi-Agent System for Motor Design Optimization via an FEA-AI Hybrid Approach

arXiv:2606. 09037v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This study presents a large language model (LLM)-based multi-agent framework for interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) design optimization that mitigates limitations of conventional workflows: expertise-dependent problem setup and data preparation, the prohibitive computational cost of finite element analysis (FEA), and the unreliability of AI surrogates in unexplored regions.

Modernizing HEBO: a robust Bayesian optimization baseline for practical heteroskedastic and non-stationary problems

arXiv:2607. 10669v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bayesian optimization is increasingly used to guide data-efficient experimentation in chemistry, materials science, and related laboratory settings, but its practical performance depends strongly on how well surrogate-model assumptions match the geometry and noise structure of the underlying objective.

ASAP: Exploiting the Satisficing Generalization Edge in Neural Combinatorial Optimization

arXiv:2501. 17377v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) has emerged as a promising approach for solving Combinatorial Optimization (CO) problems, such as the 3D Bin Packing Problem (3D-BPP), Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), or Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP), but these neural solvers often exhibit brittleness when facing distribution shifts.
