The new method employs an {SM-}based interpolating surrogate (SMIS) framework that aims at matching the surrogate with the fine model locally. Accuracy and convergence properties are demonstrated using a seven-section capacitively-loaded impedance transformer. A highly optimized six-section {H-}plane waveguide filter design emerges after only four {HFSS} {EM} simulations, excluding necessary Jacobian estimations, using the new algorithm with sparse frequency sweeps." }
