LICENSE-FREE SURROGATE MODEL GENERATION

Abstract:

A method, node, and computer-readable medium are provided to convert a proprietary model to a tool-agnostic surrogate model using a functional mockup interface (FMI) standard. A proprietary model is received as a functional-mockup unit (FMU) An automated dataset generation is performed on the FMU to create input/output datasets based on design of experiments and input requirements. Steady-state operational-points are determined. The tool-agnostic surrogate model is generated based on the input/output datasets and the steady-state operational-points. The tool-agnostic surrogate model is output as an output FMU model that is free of licensing requirements of a license for the proprietary model. The tool-agnostic surrogate model may be a steady-state surrogate model, a dynamic surrogate model, or a combination thereof.
