DARPA digitally manufactured several complex structures and conducted a series of structural load tests upon them. Data from the manufacture and load tests were posted at their website. Participants were challenged to develop a correlation model that accurately correlates DM machine inputs to output structural test data. Participant models were evaluated by their ability to predict the test results of the final DM structures. Greystones Group final round estimates submitted in the DMACE Challenge were a result of symbolic regression optimization applied to a set of data modeling functions.
