About This Course

Background

There is an increasing demand for engineers to improve the design of engineering products to stay competitive with competitors, especially in the current era of high-performance computing and abundant data. Engineers then resort to optimization techniques to help them find high-performance solutions and uncover salient design insight and features. Optimization techniques have been constantly evolving to adapt to modern engineering practices, challenges and complexities.  Especially in this age of data, mastery of optimization for engineering design has never been more important than before. The dawn of machine learning has also enabled a more efficient data-driven optimization by aiding optimization techniques to rapidly discover insight and knowledge from data. The intertwine between computer simulations, experimental data, and data-driven methods is now one of the building blocks of modern engineering. Fluency in optimization  and machine learning is then becoming an important skill that must be possessed by students, practitioners, and researchers in design optimization to take advantage of the abundant amount of data.

Why you should join this course?

This international virtual course (IVC) aims to equip students with basic and advanced introduction to multidisciplinary design optimization and machine learning. This course covers the introduction, important topics, and practical aspects of optimization and machine learning for engineering design. In this course, students will (1) learn the basic of optimization and how to formulate engineering design optimization problems, (2) learn various techniques that support engineering optimization (e.g. uncertainty quantification and data mining), (3) learn the complexities and challenges in deploying optimization techniques for real-world applications, (4) learn the basic of machine learning in the context of engineering design optimization, (5) learn how to use various optimization techniques (gradient-based, gradient-free, machine learning) to solve the formulated problems. Students will learn the theory and practice of optimization from world-class researchers and also through Python-based tutorials guided by tutors.
