New R package "duqling" enables reproducible comparison of AI emulators

A new research paper published on arXiv introduces "duqling," an R package designed to standardize and reproduce comparisons of surrogate modeling methods. The study conducted a large-scale evaluation of 29 distinct emulators across 60 test functions and 40 real-world datasets. The findings offer empirical insights into the strengths and weaknesses of various state-of-the-art emulators, providing guidance for both developers and practitioners in selecting appropriate surrogate models. AI

IMPACT Standardizes emulation method comparisons, potentially accelerating research and improving practitioner selection of surrogate models.

    All Emulators are Wrong, Many are Useful, and Some are More Useful Than Others: A Reproducible Comparison of Computer Model Surrogates

    arXiv:2512.09060v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Accurate and efficient surrogate modeling is essential for modern computational science, and there are a staggering number of emulation methods to choose from. With new methods being developed all the time, comparing the r…
