Details
Executive Summary : | The goal of the present project is to develop numerical schemes and algorithms for a Bayesian data assimilation methodology to rigorously correct forecast errors of differential equation-based viral infectious disease dynamical models, and to improve their prediction skill. |
Outcome/Output: | A non-intrusive workflow is introduced, and illustrative examples from different use cases are showcased to highlight the PC-GMM filter's performance. The PC-GMM filter accurately captures the state space's non-Gaussian features, as evidenced by its superior performance compared to the PC-GMM filter with the polynomial chaos ensemble kalman filter and polynomial chaos error subspace statistical estimation. |
