Abstract
Abstract Practicing design engineers often have certain knowledge about a design problem. However, in the last decades, the design optimization community largely treats design functions as black-boxes. This paper discusses whether and how knowledge can help with optimization, especially for large-scale optimization problems. Existing large-scale optimization methods based on black-box functions are first reviewed, and the drawbacks of those methods are briefly discussed. To understand what knowledge is and what kinds of knowledge can be obtained and applied in a design, the concepts of knowledge in both artificial intelligence (AI) and in the area of the product design are reviewed. Existing applications of knowledge in optimization are reviewed and categorized. Potential applications of knowledge for optimization are discussed in more detail, in hope to identify possible directions for future research in knowledge-assisted optimization (KAO).

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
