The research team utilized an advanced surrogate-assisted evolutionary optimization algorithm combined with a parametric design module to create a seven-step scheme for optimizing microclimate-sensitive urban design problems. Through testing in a hypothetical case, they successfully obtained a near-optimal site plan aimed at maximizing project profits and enhancing a comfortable wind environment.
Simulations can often benefit microclimate-sensitive urban design by offering insightful abstractions of stochastic urban system behaviors, yet many of them are difficult to use and generally consume significant computational resources. We adapt an advanced surrogate-assisted evolutionary optimization algorithm instead of other empirical multi-objective evolutionary algorithms commonly used to search for optimal design alternatives to confront the challenge. Moreover, a parametric design module is hybridized with this surrogate-assisted evolutionary optimization algorithm to create a working scheme for mathematically modeling microclimatesensitive urban design problems. This seven-step scheme is tested using a hypothetical case, a spatial planning problem in a residential block, to search for design proposals that maximize project development profits and facilitate the needed creation of a comfortable wind environment. Moreover, by utilizing three optimization solvers, we obtained a near-optimal site plan with a wind velocity ratio of 0.36, a wind velocity Gini index of 0.31, and a gross profit of 4.05 ? 108 RMB. Also, the case study results show that the proposed optimization framework, which consists of a global surrogate (additive Gaussian process model) and a local surrogate (gradient boosted regression trees model), converges faster and provides better optimal solutions to a highdimensional design problem compared to the algorithm which only uses a single surrogate. Built with a flexible structure, we believe the proposed framework can address the emerging demands for a wide range of microclimate-sensitive design tasks, especially those with costly simulations and small experimental datasets.
