UNCERTAINTY QUANTIFICATION FOR COMPUTATIONAL MODELS

The UNEQUIvOCAL thematic track takes place during the International Conference on Computational Science ICCS 2020 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, June 3 – June 5, 2020.

Given that uncertainty is unavoidable in almost all scientific fields, due to e.g. unknown parameters or simplifying modelling assumptions, uncertainty quantification is an indispensable part in state-of-the-art computational models. In order to build confidence in their results, it is therefore crucial that these models carry their own measure of uncertainty, especially when they are extrapolated beyond the domain in which they were originally calibrated. Also, the oncoming Exascale Computing resources will open up the possibility of solving problems with increased complexity and computational burden, exacerbating the importance (and demands) of reliable uncertainty quantification methods. This thematic track aims to attract research that focuses on new methods, which outperform existing techniques, as well as uncertainty quantification applications to complex problems.
