  • Abstract
    Approximation models are often used in place of complex analysis code during optimization. Uncertainties in the model parameters could lead to inaccuracies in the process. This paper presents a Bayesian approach for finding an optimum that is robust to the uncertainty in model parameters. We test the proposed methodology with two model types applied to standard electromagnetics benchmark problems
