| Required/Optional | Description of Group | Dakota Keyword | Dakota Keyword Description | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Required (Choose One) | Multipoint Surrogate (Group 1) | tana | Local multi-point model via two-point nonlinear approximation | |

Multipoint approximations use data from previous design points to improve the accuracy of local approximations. The data often comes from the current and previous iterates of a minimization algorithm.
Currently, only the Two-point Adaptive Nonlinearity Approximation (TANA-3) method of [95] is supported with the tana keyword.
The truth model to be used to generate the value/gradient data used in the approximation is identified through the required truth_model_pointer specification.
