We review the space-mapping (SM) technique and the SM-based surrogate (modeling)
concept and their applications in engineering design optimization. For the first time, we …

This paper reviews the current state-of-the-art in electromagnetic (EM)-based design and
optimization of microwave circuits using artificial neural networks (ANNs). Measurement …

The integration of optimization methodologies with computational analyses/simulations has
a profound impact on the product design. Such integration, however, faces multiple …

We introduce the idea of implicit space mapping (ISM) and show how it relates to the well-
established (explicit) space mapping between coarse and fine device models. Through …

The most widely used space mapping approach to efficient design optimization is the
aggressive space mapping (ASM) algorithm. My purpose here is to present both a historical …

The aim of this paper is to determine if the Space Mapping technique using surrogate
models together with response surfaces is useful in the optimization of crashworthiness and …

A procedure for diagnosis and tuning of fabricated bandpass filters is presented. A surrogate
model consisting of a mapped coarse model at a basis point and a mapping of measured …

This paper is concerned with approximations for expensive function evaluation–the
expensive functions arising in an engineering design context. The problem of reducing the …

This paper outlines the early history of optimization technology for the design of microwave
circuits—a personal journey filled with aspirations, academic contributions, and commercial …

This paper presents the response surface methodology in modeling of nonlinear microwave
devices. First, different combinations of sampling techniques and types of radial basis …
