• Title: PaDGAN: A Generative Adversarial Network for Performance Augmented Diverse Designs
• Authors: Wei Chen, Faez Ahmed
• Abstract summary: We develop a variant of the Generative Adversarial Network, named "Performance Augmented Diverse Generative Adversarial Network" or PaDGAN, which can generate novel high-quality designs with good coverage of the design space. In comparison to a vanilla Generative Adversarial Network, on average, it generates samples with a 28% higher mean quality score with larger diversity and without the mode collapse issue.

• Abstract: Deep generative models are proven to be a useful tool for automatic design synthesis and design space exploration. When applied in engineering design, existing generative models face three challenges: 1) generated designs lack diversity and do not cover all areas of the design space, 2) it is difficult to explicitly improve the overall performance or quality of generated designs, and 3) existing models generally do not generate novel designs, outside the domain of the training data. In this paper, we simultaneously address these challenges by proposing a new Determinantal Point Processes based loss function for probabilistic modeling of diversity and quality. With this new loss function, we develop a variant of the Generative Adversarial Network, named "Performance Augmented Diverse Generative Adversarial Network" or PaDGAN, which can generate novel high-quality designs with good coverage of the design space. Using three synthetic examples and one real-world airfoil design example, we demonstrate that PaDGAN can generate diverse and high-quality designs. In comparison to a vanilla Generative Adversarial Network, on average, it generates samples with a 28% higher mean quality score with larger diversity and without the mode collapse issue. Unlike typical generative models that usually generate new designs by interpolating within the boundary of training data, we show that PaDGAN expands the design space boundary outside the training data towards high-quality regions. The proposed method is broadly applicable to many tasks including design space exploration, design optimization, and creative solution recommendation.

  We focus on diffusion models, a powerful generative AI technology, and investigate their potential for black-box optimization. We study two practical types of labels: 1) noisy measurements of a real-valued reward function and 2) human preference based on pairwise comparisons. Our proposed method reformulates the design optimization problem into a conditional sampling problem, which allows us to leverage the power of diffusion models.

  Inverse design, where we seek to design input variables in order to optimize an underlying objective function, is an important problem. We show that by instead optimizing over the learned energy function captured by the diffusion model, we can avoid such adversarial examples. In an N-body interaction task and a challenging 2D multi-airfoil design task, we demonstrate that by composing the learned diffusion model at test time, our method allows us to design initial states and boundary shapes.
