Abstract: |
Metamodels are used as analysis tools for
solving optimiza- tion
problems or as surrogates used as building blocks in larger scale
simulations. The metamodel replaces the sim- ulation model by a
simplified input-output relationship, fre- quently a mathematical function with customized parame- ters. The construction
of a metamodel is based on the sim-
ulation results for a set of design points. In
order to collect statistical information each design point may be simulated
repeatedly. This paper explores the precision of the result- ing metamodel based on the
tradeoff between higher num- ber of design points
versus a higher number of replications at a smaller number of design points. |
