AI framework predicts wear fields with high accuracy using uncertainty guidance

Researchers have developed a novel uncertainty-guided active learning framework to predict wear fields in stream finishing processes. This method utilizes a deep ensemble to estimate epistemic uncertainty, allowing for selective DEM simulations on the most uncertain orientations. The framework accurately predicts key fields governing erosion, achieving high Spearman rank correlations for normal impact velocity, tangential impact velocity, and particle impact flux. The predicted uncertainty is well-calibrated, reliably anticipating prediction errors and the fidelity of the reconstructed wear field. AI

IMPACT This research demonstrates a method for improving the efficiency and accuracy of complex simulations through AI-driven uncertainty quantification.

    Uncertainty-guided active learning for surrogate prediction of stream-finishing wear fields

    arXiv:2608.00593v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In stream finishing, the wear experienced by a workpiece depends strongly on its orientation within the rotating abrasive media. Determining suitable orientations to achieve uniform wear requires evaluating the wear-rate field ove…
