The developed deep learning-based (DNN) models are developed with the input data obtained from the numerical simulations, and the performance outputs of mass (M), displacement (D), and safety factor (FS), which are able to achieve accurate predictions of nonlinear structure-parameters relationships using deep neural networks. The optimized designs with optimization objectives as deflection is obtained efficiently and precisely using Bayesian Optimization algorithm. Moreover, the present study demonstrates that the DNN-based model integrated with generative design outcomes and Bayesian optimization algorithm can provide a promising tool for the design and optimization of frame structures in product design.
