Scalable models

A scalable methodology to test MDO formulation on benchmark or real problems.

This API facilitates the use of the gemseo.problems.scalable.data_driven.study package implementing classes to benchmark MDO formulations based on scalable disciplines.

ScalabilityStudy class implements the concept of scalability study:

  1. By instantiating a ScalabilityStudy, the user defines the MDO problem in terms of design parameters, objective function and constraints.

  2. For each discipline, the user adds a dataset stored in a Dataset and select a type of ScalableModel to build the ScalableDiscipline associated with this discipline.

  3. The user adds different optimization strategies, defined in terms of both optimization algorithms and MDO formulation.

  4. The user adds different scaling strategies, in terms of sizes of design parameters, coupling variables and equality and inequality constraints. The user can also define a scaling strategies according to particular parameters rather than groups of parameters.

  5. Lastly, the user executes the ScalabilityStudy and the results are written in several files and stored into directories in a hierarchical way, where names depend on both MDO formulation, scaling strategy and replications when it is necessary. Different kinds of files are stored: optimization graphs, dependency matrix plots and of course, scalability results by means of a dedicated class: ScalabilityResult.

gemseo.problems.scalable.data_driven.create_scalability_study(objective, design_variables, directory='study', prefix='', eq_constraints=None, ineq_constraints=None, maximize_objective=False, fill_factor=0.7, active_probability=0.1, feasibility_level=0.8, start_at_equilibrium=True, early_stopping=True, coupling_variables=None)[source]

This method creates a ScalabilityStudy. It requires two mandatory arguments:

  • the 'objective' name,

  • the list of 'design_variables' names.

Concerning output files, we can specify:

  • the directory which is 'study' by default,

  • the prefix of output file names (default: no prefix).

Regarding optimization parametrization, we can specify:

  • the list of equality constraints names (eq_constraints),

  • the list of inequality constraints names (ineq_constraints),

  • the choice of maximizing the objective function (maximize_objective).

By default, the objective function is minimized and the MDO problem is unconstrained.

Last but not least, with regard to the scalability methodology, we can overwrite:

  • the default fill factor of the input-output dependency matrix ineq_constraints,

  • the probability to set the inequality constraints as active at initial step of the optimization active_probability,

  • the offset of satisfaction for inequality constraints feasibility_level,

  • the use of a preliminary MDA to start at equilibrium start_at_equilibrium,

  • the post-processing of the optimization database to get results earlier than final step early_stopping.

Parameters:
  • objective (str) – The name of the objective.

  • design_variables (Iterable[str]) – The names of the design variables.

  • directory (str) –

    The working directory of the study.

    By default it is set to “study”.

  • prefix (str) –

    The prefix for the output filenames.

    By default it is set to “”.

  • eq_constraints (Iterable[str] | None) – The names of the equality constraints, if any.

  • ineq_constraints (Iterable[str] | None) – The names of the inequality constraints, if any.

  • maximize_objective (bool) –

    Whether to maximize the objective.

    By default it is set to False.

  • fill_factor (float) –

    The default fill factor of the input-output dependency matrix.

    By default it is set to 0.7.

Scalable MDO problem.

This module implements the concept of scalable problem by means of the ScalableProblem class.

Given

  • an MDO scenario based on a set of sampled disciplines with a particular problem dimension,

  • a new problem dimension (= number of inputs and outputs),

a scalable problem:

  1. makes each discipline scalable based on the new problem dimension,

  2. creates the corresponding MDO scenario.

Then, this MDO scenario can be executed and post-processed.

We can repeat this tasks for different sizes of variables and compare the scalability, which is the dependence of the scenario results on the problem dimension.

Scalable discipline.

The discipline implements the concept of scalable discipline. This is a particular discipline built from an input-output learning dataset associated with a function and generalizing its behavior to a new user-defined problem dimension, that is to say new user-defined input and output dimensions.

Alone or in interaction with other objects of the same type, a scalable discipline can be used to compare the efficiency of an algorithm applying to disciplines with respect to the problem dimension, e.g. optimization algorithm, surrogate model, MDO formulation, MDA, …

The ScalableDiscipline class implements this concept. It inherits from the MDODiscipline class in such a way that it can easily be used in a Scenario. It is composed of a ScalableModel.

The user only needs to provide:

  • the name of a class overloading ScalableModel,

  • a dataset as an Dataset

  • variables sizes as a dictionary whose keys are the names of inputs and outputs and values are their new sizes. If a variable is missing, its original size is considered.

The ScalableModel parameters can also be filled in, otherwise the model uses default values.

This method defines when the output data have to be cached according to the distance between the corresponding input data and the input data already cached for which output data are also cached.

The cache can be either a SimpleCache recording the last execution or a cache storing all executions, e.g. MemoryFullCache and HDF5Cache. Caching data can be either in-memory, e.g. SimpleCache and MemoryFullCache, or on the disk, e.g. HDF5Cache.

The attribute CacheFactory.caches provides the available caches types.

Parameters:
  • cache_type (CacheType) –

    The type of cache.

    By default it is set to “SimpleCache”.

  • cache_tolerance (float) –

    The maximum relative norm of the difference between two input arrays to consider that two input arrays are equal.

    By default it is set to 0.0.

  • cache_hdf_file (str | Path | None) – The path to the HDF file to store the data; this argument is mandatory when the MDODiscipline.CacheType.HDF5 policy is used.

  • cache_hdf_node_path (str | None) – The name of the HDF file node to store the discipline data, possibly passed as a path root_name/.../group_name/.../node_name. If None, MDODiscipline.name is used.

    Whether to store the data with a shared memory dictionary, which makes the cache compatible with multiprocessing.

    By default it is set to True.

Return type:

None

Scalable model.

This module implements the abstract concept of scalable model which is used by scalable disciplines. A scalable model is built from an input-output learning dataset associated with a function and generalizing its behavior to a new user-defined problem dimension, that is to say new user-defined input and output dimensions.

The concept of scalable model is implemented through ScalableModel, an abstract class which is instantiated from:

  • data provided as a Dataset

  • variables sizes provided as a dictionary whose keys are the names of inputs and outputs and values are their new sizes. If a variable is missing, its original size is considered.

Scalable model parameters can also be filled in. Otherwise, the model uses default values.

Scalable diagonal model.

This module implements the concept of scalable diagonal model, which is a particular scalable model built from an input-output dataset relying on a diagonal design of experiments (DOE) where inputs vary proportionally from their lower bounds to their upper bounds, following the diagonal of the input space.

So for every output, the dataset catches its evolution with respect to this proportion, which makes it a mono dimensional behavior. Then, for a new user-defined problem dimension, the scalable model extrapolates this mono dimensional behavior to the different input directions.

The concept of scalable diagonal model is implemented through the ScalableDiagonalModel class which is composed of a ScalableDiagonalApproximation. With regard to the diagonal DOE, GEMSEO proposes the DiagonalDOE class.

plot_1d_interpolations(save=False, show=False, step=0.01, varnames=None, directory='.', png=False)[source]

Plot the scaled 1D interpolations, a.k.a. the basis functions.

A basis function is a mono dimensional function interpolating the samples of a given output component over the input sampling line \(t\in[0,1]\mapsto \\underline{x}+t(\overline{x}-\\underline{x})\).

There are as many basis functions as there are output components from the discipline. Thus, for a discipline with a single output in dimension 1, there is 1 basis function. For a discipline with a single output in dimension 2, there are 2 basis functions. For a discipline with an output in dimension 2 and an output in dimension 13, there are 15 basis functions. And so on. This method allows to plot the basis functions associated with all outputs or only part of them, either on screen (show=True), in a file (save=True) or both. We can also specify the discretization step whose default value is 0.01.

Parameters:
  • save (bool) –
