Proposal for co-funding the CIME School on Numerical methods for forward and inverse Uncertainty Quantification

Abstract

Prof. Andrew Stuart (CALTECH, USA), Prof. Raul Tempone (RWTH-Aachen, Germany and KAUST, Saudi Arabia) and myself, Prof. Fabio Nobile (EPFL, Switzerland), are organizing a CIME summer school on Numerical methods for forward and inverse Uncertainty Quantification" in Cetraro, Italy from August 31st to September 4th, 2020.The explosive interest in Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) worldwide in recent years has opened new doors to exciting, relevant problems and job opportunities for new graduates in applied mathematics, statistics and computational science. UQ activities are concerned with the systematicquantification and reduction of uncertainties that originate from tolerance-based design and fabrication, noisy experimental measurements, error-prone simulations, limited model predictability,etc. The CIME summer school will focus on relevant methodologies for UQ, their mathematical analysis and computational aspects. It addresses to graduate students, post-docs and early career scientists with a strong background and interest on mathematical foundations, and will expose them to the most recent theoretical and algorithmic developments in the field.
