Abstract:
1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoded with a computer program for optimizing a technical system that is a nonlinear technical product or process, the program when executed by a computer causes the computer to perform a method comprising: describing the technical system by stochastic system output target values dependent on stochastic system input parameter values, thereby stating discrete technical system dependencies; using Response Surface Methods based on the discrete technical system dependencies to generate at least one continuous auxiliary function {tilde over (ƒ)} using an auxiliary function ({tilde over (ƒ)} repeating both of said using operations to adaptively optimize the technical system, respectively additionally using the additional discrete technical system dependence ({tilde over (ƒ)} wherein the optimizing parameter includes at least one of a mean value (E({tilde over (ƒ)}(
