Compressed Complex-Valued Least Squares Support Vector Machine Regression for Modeling of the Frequency-Domain Responses of Electromagnetic Structures
Nastaran Soleimani, Riccardo Trinchero
Abstract
This paper deals with the development of a Machine Learning (ML)-based regression for the construction of complex-valued surrogate models for the analysis of the frequency-domain responses of electromagnetic (EM) structures. The proposed approach relies on the combination of two-techniques: (i) the principal component analysis (PCA) and (ii) an unusual complex-valued formulation of the Least Squares Support Vector Machine (LS-SVM) regression. First, the training and test dataset is obtained from a set of parametric electromagnetic simulations. The spectra collected in the training set are compressed via the PCA by exploring the correlation among the available data. In the next step, the compressed dataset is used for the training of compact set of complex-valued surrogate models and their accuracy is evaluated on the test samples. The effectiveness and the performance of the complex-valued LS-SVM regression with three kernel functions are investigated on two application examples consisting of a serpentine delay structure with three parameters and a high-speed link with four parameters. Moreover, for the last example, the performance of the proposed approach is also compared with those provided by a real-valued multi-output feedforward Neural Network model.
