The focus will be on the case where these additional (secondary) uncertainties are reducible; such parametric uncertainties can, in principle, be reduced through parameter estimation. We seek experimental designs that minimize the posterior uncertainty in the inversion parameters, while accounting for the uncertainty in the secondary parameters. To accomplish this, we derive a marginalized A-optimality criterion and present an efficient computational approach for its optimization. We illustrate our proposed methods in a problem involving inference of an uncertain time-dependent source in a contaminant transport model, with an uncertain initial state as secondary uncertainty. We will also discuss a sensitivity analysis framework\u00a0that can help reduce the complexity of inversion and design of experiments under additional model uncertainties.<\/p>\n<p><em>Please note that the meeting URL for this event can be seen on the <\/em>cels-seminars website<em>, which requires an Argonne login.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seminar Title: Optimal Design of Inverse Problems Governed by PDEs Under Model Uncertainty Speaker: Alen Alexanderian, Assistant Professor, Department of Mathematics, North Carolina State University Date\/Time: February 24, 2021 \/ 10:30 AM &#8211; 11:30 AM Location: See meeting URL on &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.cels.anl.gov\/lans-seminars\/event\/virtual-lans-seminar-28\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":43,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","footnotes":"","_members_access_role":[],"_members_access_error":""},"tags":[],"tribe_events_cat":[2],"class_list":["post-2733","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","hentry","tribe_events_cat-seminar","cat_seminar"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.cels.anl.gov\/lans-seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/2733","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.cels.anl.gov\/lans-seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.cels.anl.gov\/lans-seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.cels.anl.gov\/lans-seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/43"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.cels.anl.gov\/lans-seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/2733\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2734,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.cels.anl.gov\/lans-seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/2733\/revisions\/2734"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.cels.anl.gov\/lans-seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2733"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.cels.anl.gov\/lans-seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2733"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.cels.anl.gov\/lans-seminars\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events_cat?post=2733"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
