Description
The number of training points and the sources are specified on
global
, as well as the number of new training points
required.
New training points are gathered by running the “truth” model using
the method specified by dace_method_pointer
.
The DACE method will only be
invoked if it has new samples to perform, and if new samples are
required and no DACE iterator has been provided, an error will result.
The dace_method_pointer
points to design of experiments method
block
used to generate truth model data.
Permissible methods include: Monte Carlo (random) sampling, Latin hypercube sampling, orthogonal array sampling, central composite design sampling, and Box-Behnken sampling.
Note that the number of samples specified in the method block
may be overwritten, if the requested number of samples is less than
minimum_points
.
