Running the Optimization

The following procedure shows you how to run an optimization (Random Search, Plugin optimization, Design of Experiment).

Prerequisites: You must have set the target(s) and variable(s) in case of Random search and Plugin optimization, or set the variables in case of a Design of Experiment.
  1. In the Simulation tree, right-click the optimization feature and select Compute or GPU Compute to run the optimization.
  2. At the end of the optimization process, Speos asks you if you want to replace the initial variables value with the best solution found.
    • Click Yes to replace.
    • Click No to keep the initial values.

An HTML report is generated at the end of the optimization process under the Optimization feature node.

In case of a Random search optimization, if you set Keep intermediate results to True, then a folder is created in the SPEOS output files folder with the name of the Optimization feature containing all iteration results.
