Efficient multidisciplinary design via Bayesian optimization

This study introduces SEGOMOE, a Bayesian optimization tool for optimizing complex, computationally expensive systems, especially in aeronautics. It efficiently handles mixed design variables (continuous, discrete, categorical, hierarchical) using adaptive Gaussian process models. SEGOMOE combines expert models to address nonlinearities in objectives and constraints, leveraging the open-source Surrogate Modeling Toolbox (SMT). The tool supports multi-fidelity data and solves both single- and multi-objective problems, including hidden constraints and high-dimensional decomposition. Validated through benchmarks and real-world aeronautical applications, SEGOMOE proves to be robust and versatile for tackling multidisciplinary challenges.
