We propose a novel framework named Uncertainty-aware Search framework for Multi-Objective Optimization with Constraints (USeMOC) to efficiently select the sequence of inputs for evaluation to solve this problem. The selection method of USeMOC consists of solving a cheap constrained MO optimization problem via surrogate models of the true functions to identify the most promising candidates and picking the best candidate based on a measure of uncertainty. We applied this framework to optimize the design of a multi-output switched-capacitor voltage regulator via expensive simulations. Our experimental results show that USeMOC is able to achieve more than 90 % reduction in the number of simulations needed to uncover optimized circuits.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2008.07029v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2008.07029v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"uncertainty-aware-search-framework-for-multi","repo_url":"https://github.com/belakaria/USEMOC","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"bayesian-optimization","task_name":"Bayesian Optimization"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=2008.07029","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
