“Do Diffusion Models Dream of Electric Planes?” Discrete and Continuous Simulation-Based Inference for Aircraft Design

ICML 2026poster

In this paper, we generate conceptual engineering designs of electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. We follow the paradigm of simulation-based inference (SBI), whereby we look to learn a posterior distribution over the full eVTOL design space. To learn this distribution, we must sa…

Direct Amortized Likelihood Ratio Estimation

AAAI 2024technical

We introduce a new amortized likelihood ratio estimator for likelihood-free simulation-based inference (SBI). Our estimator is simple to train and estimates the likelihood ratio using a single forward pass of the neural estimator. Our approach directly computes the likelihood ratio between two compe…

AircraftVerse: A Large-Scale Multimodal Dataset of Aerial Vehicle Designs

NeurIPS 2023poster

We present AircraftVerse, a publicly available aerial vehicle design dataset. Aircraft design encompasses different physics domains and, hence, multiple modalities of representation. The evaluation of these designs requires the use of scientific analytical and simulation models ranging from computer…
