Categorical Optimization with Bayesian Anchored Latent Trust Regions for Structural Design under High-Dimensional Uncertainty

arXiv:2604. 25241v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Categorical structural optimization under aleatoric uncertainty is challenging because each design variable must be selected from a finite catalog of admissible instances, while each candidate design may require expensive stochastic finite-element evaluations.

Learning-Based Surrogate Method for Stochastic Optimization under Decision-Dependent Uncertainty with Adaptive Random Designs

The paper introduces a learning-based surrogate approach for stochastic optimization problems where uncertainty depends on the decision, modeled via a nonparametric regression. It constructs a surrogate that embeds iteratively updated Jacobian estimates, using an adaptive random design that focuses sampling near the current iterate to achieve dimension‑independent convergence of the Jacobian estimates. The resulting learning‑based stochastic prox‑linear (L‑SPL) algorithm demonstrates nonasymptotic convergence rates and outperforms existing methods in sample efficiency and objective value in numerical experiments.
