Beta features#

The SimAI Pro application lets you activate beta-level features capabilities that are still in development but released on a provisional basis for exploratory use and evaluation.

Beta feature disclaimer

  • Beta features have not been fully tested and validated. Ansys, Inc. may, at its discretion, fully release, change, or withdraw beta features in future revisions.

  • Ansys, Inc. does not guarantee resolution of defects reported against beta features. However, your feedback plays a vital role in enhancing and extending the application.

  • Beta features are not subject to the Ansys Class 3 error reporting system. Ansys, Inc. does not guarantee that input files used with beta features will run successfully from version to version of the software, nor with the final released version of the features. You may need to modify the input files before running them on other versions.

Downsampling#

Downsampling can improve performance of model training if:

  1. the training of the same model is much faster for either a test run or a general reduced training time or

  2. you need to avoid memory issues if the data does not fit the hardware.

Enabling Downsampling (BETA)

To enable the BETA downsampling functionality, set the following variables in the installation folder:

~installation_path~\Install\ANSYS Inc\Ansys Solutions\Ansys SimAI Pro Solution\0.1.2\definitions\simai_pro\.env

  • SIMAI_ENABLE_DOWNSAMPLING=True (case-insensitive) or

  • SIMAI_ENABLE_DOWNSAMPLING=1

Follow the usage instructions under Downsampling (BETA feature).
