Using Auton RSM

From the main EYE menu you may choose the RSM command or the AutoLOOP command. RSM permits up to seven options, though the first time you use it, many of these won't be available.

• new Create a new AutoRSM project. If there is currently data loaded in EYE, you will be given the option of using that data, or starting from no data at all.

• load If, in an earlier session, you saved an AutoRSM project, this will allow you to reload that project in the same state that it was saved.

• choose This suggests the next experiment, based on your current optimization method. It explains how it made its decision with words and graphs.

• edit This allows an expert user to alter the optimization method, the task specification, and other AutoRSM objects described below.

• inspect This allows an expert user to inspect the optimization method, the task specification, and other AutoRSM objects described below.

• observe This allows the user to report to AutoRSM the result of performing one or more of its recommended experiments. It is not necessary to report a result which RSM recommended: you can tell AutoRSM the input parameter values you used and the output values you observed. This will also change the data in EYE's current datafile, and so you will be able to run all the other eye operations (graph, blackbox, etc) taking the new data into account.

• save This saves the entire state of the autorsm project so that you can load it for future optimization sessions.
