    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architectural_design...

    A flow chart for simulation-based optimisation. Model-based optimisation, unlike metaheuristic and direct search methods, utilises a surrogate model to iteratively refine and optimise architecture. [16] The surrogate model is an explicit representation of implicit mathematical processes, such as statistics or machine learning. [17]
