Reuse Run Data

An Inclusion matrix contains existing data that will be appended into the newly created approach as known data points. This data typically comes from other approaches, such as DOEs or previously run Optimizations.

In a DOE, an inclusion can be used to extend an existing DOE or concatenate data sets.

  1. Go to the Specifications step for the DOE.
  2. In the top, right of the work area, click Edit Matrix > Inclusion Matrix.
  3. In the Edit Inclusion Matrix dialog, click Import Values.
  4. In the Import Values dialog, select Approach evaluation data and click Next.
  5. For Approach evaluation data, select the approach that contains run data.
  6. Click Next.
  7. Define the variable to column assignment(s).
    1. From the Variable to ColumnAssignment table, select a variable to which run data will be assigned.
    2. From the Columns in Source File table, select the column that contains run data to assign to the selected variable.
    3. Click Assign.
  8. Click Finish.
  9. Review the imported run data.
  10. Click OK.
