|
||||
|
||||
## Training Data Export (PR.9)
|
||||
|
||||
Enable training data export in your optimization config:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"training_data_export": {
|
||||
"enabled": true,
|
||||
"export_dir": "atomizer_field_training_data/my_study"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Using TrainingDataExporter
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from optimization_engine.training_data_exporter import TrainingDataExporter
|
||||
|
||||
training_exporter = TrainingDataExporter(
|
||||
export_dir=export_dir,
|
||||
study_name=study_name,
|
||||
design_variable_names=['param1', 'param2'],
|
||||
objective_names=['stiffness', 'mass'],
|
||||
constraint_names=['mass_limit'],
|
||||
metadata={'atomizer_version': '2.0', 'optimization_algorithm': 'NSGA-II'}
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
# In objective function:
|
||||
training_exporter.export_trial(
|
||||
trial_number=trial.number,
|
||||
design_variables=design_vars,
|
||||
results={'objectives': {...}, 'constraints': {...}},
|
||||
simulation_files={'dat_file': dat_path, 'op2_file': op2_path}
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
# After optimization:
|
||||
training_exporter.finalize()
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Training Data Structure
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
atomizer_field_training_data/{study_name}/
|
||||

## Model Types
|
||||
|
||||
### Parametric Predictor GNN (Recommended)
|
||||
|
||||
Direct optimization objective prediction - fastest option.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Design Parameters (ND) → Design Encoder (MLP) → GNN Backbone → Scalar Heads
|
||||
|
||||
Output (objectives):
|
||||
├── mass (grams)
|
||||
├── frequency (Hz)
|
||||
├── max_displacement (mm)
|
||||
└── max_stress (MPa)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Use When**: You only need scalar objectives, not full field predictions.
|
||||
|
||||
### Field Predictor GNN
|
||||
|
||||
Full displacement/stress field prediction.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Input Features (12D per node):
|
||||
├── Node coordinates (x, y, z)
|
||||
├── Material properties (E, nu, rho)
|
||||
├── Boundary conditions (fixed/free per DOF)
|
||||
└── Load information (force magnitude, direction)
|
||||
|
||||
Output (per node):
|
||||
├── Displacement (6 DOF: Tx, Ty, Tz, Rx, Ry, Rz)
|
||||
└── Von Mises stress (1 value)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Use When**: You need field visualization or complex derived quantities.
|
||||
|
||||
### Ensemble Models
|
||||
|
||||
Multiple models for uncertainty quantification.
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# Run N models
|
||||
predictions = [model_i(x) for model_i in ensemble]
|
||||
|
||||
# Statistics
|
||||
mean_prediction = np.mean(predictions)
|
||||
uncertainty = np.std(predictions)
|
||||
|
||||
# Decision
|
||||
if uncertainty > threshold:
|
||||
result = run_fea(x) # Fall back to FEA
|
||||
else:
|
||||
result = mean_prediction
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Hybrid FEA/Neural Workflow
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 1: FEA Exploration (50-100 trials)
|
||||
- Run standard FEA optimization
|
||||
- Export training data automatically
|
||||
- Build landscape understanding
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 2: Neural Training
|
||||
- Parse collected data
|
||||
- Train parametric predictor
|
||||
- Validate accuracy
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 3: Neural Acceleration (1000s of trials)
|
||||
- Use neural network for rapid exploration
|
||||
- Periodic FEA validation
|
||||
- Retrain if distribution shifts
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 4: FEA Refinement (10-20 trials)
|
||||
- Validate top candidates with FEA
|
||||
- Ensure results are physically accurate
|
||||
- Generate final Pareto front
|
||||

|
||||
## Training Pipeline
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1: Collect Training Data
|
||||
|
||||
Run optimization with export enabled:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python run_optimization.py --train --trials 100
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: Parse to Neural Format
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd atomizer-field
|
||||
python batch_parser.py ../atomizer_field_training_data/my_study
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 3: Train Model
|
||||
|
||||
**Parametric Predictor** (recommended):
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python train_parametric.py \
|
||||
--train_dir ../training_data/parsed \
|
||||
--val_dir ../validation_data/parsed \
|
||||
--epochs 200 \
|
||||
--hidden_channels 128 \
|
||||
--num_layers 4
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Field Predictor**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python train.py \
|
||||
--train_dir ../training_data/parsed \
|
||||
--epochs 200 \
|
||||
--model FieldPredictorGNN \
|
||||
--hidden_channels 128 \
|
||||
--num_layers 6 \
|
||||
--physics_loss_weight 0.3
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 4: Validate
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python validate.py --checkpoint runs/my_model/checkpoint_best.pt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Expected output:
|
||||
```
|
||||
Validation Results:
|
||||
├── Mean Absolute Error: 2.3% (mass), 1.8% (frequency)
|
||||
├── R² Score: 0.987
|
||||
├── Inference Time: 4.5ms ± 0.8ms
|
||||
└── Physics Violations: 0.2%
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 5: Deploy
|
||||
|
||||
Update config to use trained model:
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"neural_surrogate": {
|
||||
"enabled": true,
|
||||
"model_checkpoint": "atomizer-field/runs/my_model/checkpoint_best.pt",
|
||||
"confidence_threshold": 0.85
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Uncertainty Thresholds
|
||||
|
||||
| Uncertainty | Action |
|
||||
|-------------|--------|
|
||||
| < 5% | Use neural prediction |
|
||||
| 5-15% | Use neural, flag for validation |
|
||||
| > 15% | Fall back to FEA |
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Accuracy Expectations
|
||||
|
||||
| Problem Type | Expected R² | Samples Needed |
|
||||
|--------------|-------------|----------------|
|
||||
| Well-behaved | > 0.95 | 50-100 |
|
||||
| Moderate nonlinear | > 0.90 | 100-200 |
|
||||
| Highly nonlinear | > 0.85 | 200-500 |

## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
| Symptom | Cause | Solution |
|
||||
|---------|-------|----------|
|
||||
| High prediction error | Insufficient training data | Collect more FEA samples |
|
||||
| Out-of-distribution warnings | Design outside training range | Retrain with expanded range |
|
||||
| Slow inference | Large mesh | Use parametric predictor instead |
|
||||
| Physics violations | Low physics loss weight | Increase `physics_loss_weight` |
