Optimal snapshot location for computing POD basis functions

Karl Kunisch, Stefan Volkwein (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

The construction of reduced order models for dynamical systems using proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) is based on the information contained in so-called snapshots. These provide the spatial distribution of the dynamical system at discrete time instances. This work is devoted to optimizing the choice of these time instances in such a manner that the error between the POD-solution and the trajectory of the dynamical system is minimized. First and second order optimality systems are given. Numerical...

Optimal uncertainty quantification for legacy data observations of Lipschitz functions

T. J. Sullivan, M. McKerns, D. Meyer, F. Theil, H. Owhadi, M. Ortiz (2013)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

We consider the problem of providing optimal uncertainty quantification (UQ) – and hence rigorous certification – for partially-observed functions. We present a UQ framework within which the observations may be small or large in number, and need not carry information about the probability distribution of the system in operation. The UQ objectives are posed as optimization problems, the solutions of which are optimal bounds on the quantities of interest; we consider two typical settings, namely parameter...
