Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for simulating a concrete mixture. One of the methods includes obtaining an optical characterization of physical particles, generating a multispherical approximation of the physical particles, the multispherical approximation having reduced dimensionality compared to the optical characterization, simulating an aggregate mixture by applying the multispherical approximation of the particles to a physics simulator to obtain a predicted performance of the proposed aggregate mixture, selectively altering the aggregate mixture based on a comparison with performance metrics and simulating the altered aggregate mixture until the predicted performance satisfies the performance metrics to obtain a final aggregate mixture, and outputting the final aggregate mixture.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for in-process adjustment to crushing systems. A method includes obtaining pre-crush particle data indicating characteristics of a portion of particles before crushing the portion of particles with a crushing system; obtaining settings data indicating one or more settings of the crushing system; obtaining post-crush particle data indicating characteristics of the portion of particles after crushing the portion of particles; and training a prediction model using the pre-crush particle data, the settings data, and the post-crush particle data, comprising: processing, using the prediction model, the pre-crush particle data and the settings data to obtain a corresponding output including predicted characteristics of the portion of particles after crushing the portion of particles with the crushing system; and adjusting parameters of the prediction model based on comparing the output of the prediction model to the post-crush particle data.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an archipelago model is provided for distributed execution of evolutionary computing techniques. In some embodiments, an archipelago manager computing device manages a centralized archipelago management queue, and provides population subsets to a plurality of island computing devices. The archipelago manager computing device receives candidate solutions from the island computing devices, stores the candidate solutions in the archipelago management queue, and transmits candidate solutions from the archipelago management queue to the island computing devices in order to exchange candidate solutions between the island computing devices. The use of an archipelago management queue allows transfer of candidate solutions between different island computing devices, is robust to failure of any given island computing device, and does not require homogeneity within the plurality of island computing devices.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for characterization of aggregate particles. A method includes obtaining, from a set of low fidelity sensors, first sensor data of a first portion of particles; obtaining, from a set of high fidelity sensors, second sensor data of the first portion of particles, the second sensor data comprising a higher fidelity representation of characteristics of the first portion of particles than the first sensor data; training a characterization model using the first sensor data and the second sensor data, the training comprising: providing, as training data to the characterization model, the second sensor data; and processing the second sensor data with the characterization model to correlate the first sensor data with the second sensor data. The first sensor data can indicate shape characteristics of each particle; and the second sensor data indicates a surface area of each particle.
