A simple Bayesian optimization method in MATLAB, with an interface to interact with simulations in ANSYS Workbench. This allows designs that are appropriately parameterized in ANSYS Workbench to be optimized based on ANSYS CFX simulation results.

Both single-objective and multi-objective Bayesian optimization are implemented.
