Abstract
Abstract This article presents a novel mode-pursuing sampling method using discriminative coordinate perturbation (MPS-DCP) to further improve the convergence performance of solving high-dimensional, expensive, and black-box (HEB) problems. In MPS-DCP, a discriminative coordinate perturbation strategy is integrated into the original mode-pursuing sampling (MPS) framework for sequential sampling. During optimization, the importance of variables is defined by approximated global sensitivities, while the perturbation probabilities of variables are dynamically adjusted according to the number of optimization stalling iterations. Expensive points considering both optimality and space-filling property are selected from cheap points generated by perturbing the current best point, which balances between global exploration and local exploitation. The convergence property of MPS-DCP is theoretically analyzed. The performance of MPS-DCP is tested on several numerical benchmarks and compared with state-of-the-art metamodel-based design optimization methods for HEB problems. The results indicate that MPS-DCP generally outperforms the competitive methods regarding convergence and robustness performances. Finally, the proposed MPS-DCP is applied to a stepped cantilever beam design optimization problem and an all-electric satellite multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) problem. The results demonstrate that MPS-DCP can find better feasible optima with the same or less computational cost than the competitive methods, which demonstrates its effectiveness and practicality in solving real-world engineering problems.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
