Table 2 Summary of surrogate modeling strategies evaluated in this study
Model name | Uses prior | Tasks included | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
HDGP P-All | Yes | Main + Auxiliary | DGP with priors derived from an encoder-decoder model trained on main tasks. |
HDGP P-Main | Yes | Main only | DGP with priors from an encoder-decoder model trained only on main tasks. |
HDGP NP-All | No | Main + Auxiliary | DGP without using prior knowledge. |
HDGP NP-Main | No | Main only | DGP without priors or auxiliary properties. |
GP (no corr. kernel) | No | Individual | Conventional GP trained independently for each property. Does not model inter-property correlations. |
XGBoost | No | Per task | Gradient-boosted decision tree model applied separately to each property (classical regression baseline). |
Encoder-Decoder (regularized dense network) | No | Main only | Multi-target regression model based on decoding nonlinearities in data (also used as a prior in HDGP configuration). |
