Kernel-based Active Subspaces with application to CFD parametric problems using Discontinuous Galerkin method
share
A new method to perform a nonlinear reduction in parameter spaces is proposed. By using a kernel approach it is possible to find active subspaces in high-dimensional feature spaces. A mathematical foundation of the method is presented, with several applications to benchmark model functions, both scalar and vector-valued. We also apply the kernel-based active subspaces extension to a CFD parametric problem using the Discontinuous Galerkin method. A full comparison with respect to the linear active subspaces technique is provided for all the applications, proving the better performances of the proposed method. Moreover we show how the new kernel method overcomes the drawbacks of the active subspaces application for radial symmetric model functions.
