AIMx: An Extended Adaptive Integral Method for the Fast Electromagnetic Modeling of Complex Structures
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Surface integral equation (SIE) methods are of great interest for the efficient electromagnetic modeling of various devices, from integrated circuits to antenna arrays. Existing acceleration algorithms for SIEs, such as the adaptive integral method (AIM), enable the fast approximation of interactions between well-separated mesh elements. Nearby interactions involve the singularity of the kernel, and must instead be computed accurately with direct integration at each frequency of interest, which can be computationally expensive. We propose a novel algorithm for reducing the cost-per-frequency of near-region computations for both homogeneous and layered background media. In the proposed extended AIM (AIMx), the SIE operators are decomposed into a frequency-independent term containing the singularity of the kernel, and a nonsingular frequency-dependent term. Direct integration is only required for the frequency-independent term and can be reused at each frequency, leading to significantly faster frequency sweeps. The frequency-dependent term is captured with good accuracy using fast Fourier transform (FFT)-based acceleration even in the near region, as confirmed with an error analysis. The accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method are demonstrated through numerical examples drawn from several applications, and CPU times are significantly reduced by factors ranging from 3 to 16.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
