Abstract:

With the rapid advancement of science and technology, the complexity of modern products and systems increases significantly, resulting in an exponential growth of design information, and posing significant challenges for model-based systems engineering (MBSE) in complex systems. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers a viable solution to these challenges. However, the concept of AI for MBSE (AI4MBSE) is not reviewed since its inception. To explore the current state of research on AI4MBSE and to provide prospects, the development overview of MBSE and AI is summarized, and the concept of AI4MBSE is introduced. Then, the current state and key technologies of research on AI4MBSE are analyzed and summarized by searching for literature related to AI4MBSE from relevant databases over the past six years. Finally, the research gaps, research prospects and future research trends of AI4MBSE are presented. This paper has certain contributes to the development of AI4MBSE and is of significant importance for enhancing the automation, digitization, and intelligence levels of MBSE.

Key words: model-based systems engineering (MBSE), artificial intelligence (AI), AI for MBSE (AI4MBSE)
