    Improving the power density of an interior permanent magnet synchronous machine requires a complex and comprehensive approach that includes electromagnetic and thermal aspects. To achieve that, a ... multi-objective optimization of the machine’s geometry was performed according to selected key performance indicators by using numerical and analytical models. The primary objective of this research was to create a computationally efficient and accurate alternative to a direct finite element method-based optimization. By integrating artificial neural networks as meta-models, we aimed to demonstrate their performance in comparison to existing State-of-the-Art approaches. The artificial neural network approach achieved a nearly 20-fold reduction compared with the finite element method-based approach in computation time while maintaining accuracy, demonstrating its effectiveness as a computationally efficient alternative. The obtained artificial neural network can also be reused for different optimization scenarios and for iterative fine-tuning, further reducing the computation time. To highlight the advantages and limitations of the proposed approach, a multi-objective optimization scenario was performed, which increased the power-to-mass ratio by 16.5%.
