October
A Seminar by Dr Arnaud Vadeboncoeur (University of Cambridge) was given on Monday 7th October 2024 . The title of the talk was “Calibrating Parameter Distributions of Physical Models for Population-Based Inference”. Abstract: Inferring model parameters from observational data of a physical system is the setup for many inverse problems. Solving these kinds of problems can give key insight into the state of a system for quantities that are not directly observable, such as material properties. In this talk, we discuss a population-based perspective on solving inverse problems where the data available comes from a collection of physical systems and we are interested in characterising the (indirectly observable) properties of these systems at a distributional level. We call this: calibrating priors from indirect data. Furthermore, we show how this can be accomplished while concurrently learning ML-based surrogates which capture the behaviour of the physical systems of interest. This talk is based on the recent work: Efficient Prior Calibration From Indirect Data. https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.17955v1.

Keith Worden
Keith Worden has joined among 73 of the UK’s most prominent engineering and technology experts elected as a Royal Academy of Engineering Fellow. The new Fellows were chosen for their exceptional contributions in pioneering new innovations, leading progress in business or academia, providing high-level advice to government, or promoting a wider understanding of engineering and technology. It is a great recognition of Keith’s work and he joins two of our ROSEHIPS members (Mark Girolami, UoC and Roger Woods, QUB). Many congratulations to Keith.
