Description of the method

Manifold-mapping is an efficient surrogate-based optimization technique aimed at the acceleration of very time-consuming design problems.

The manifold-mapping concept introduces an alternative correction of the coarse model. Unlike the space-mapping function, it is very straightforward to compute and the associated manifold-mapping algorithm can be proven to converge to the true optimum (Echeverria and Hemker, 2006). The manifold-mapping algorithm has been reported as an efficient optimization technique in problems of practical relevance.
