The disclosure following relates generally to complex simulations, and fault diagnosis. In some embodiments, a component that is causing a delayed simulation time of a system is determined. A component of reduced complexity is designed, and the component of reduced complexity is used to replace the original component in the system. Fault diagnosis may then be conducted using the updated system with the reduced complexity component, thus decreasing the time taken to diagnose the fault.

Machine learning based systems and methods for real time, model based diagnosis

A method and system for automated design of a physical system are provided. During operation, the system obtains a component library comprising a plurality of physical components, receives design requirements of the physical system, and constructs an initial system model based on physical components in the component library and the design requirements. The system topology associated with the initial system model can include a large number of links that are sufficiently coupled to one another, and a respective link comprises one or more physical components. The system further performs an optimization operation comprising a plurality of iterations, with the system topology being updated at each iteration. Updating the system topology includes removing links and components from the system topology. The system then generates a final system model based on an outcome of the optimization operation and outputs a design solution of the physical system according to the final system model.
