Introduction to Infinite Dimensional Statistics and Applications
Jan Mandel
These notes started to educate ourselves and to collect some background for our future work, with the hope that perhaps they will be useful to others also. Many if not all results…
Building a Fuel Moisture Model for the Coupled Fire-Atmosphere Model WRF-SFIRE from Data: From Kalman Filters to Recurrent Neural Networks
J. Mandel, J. Hirschi, A. K. Kochanski +6
The current fuel moisture content (FMC) subsystems in WRF-SFIRE and its workflow system WRFx use a time-lag differential equation model with assimilation of data from FMC sensors o…
Simple finite elements and multigrid for efficient mass-consistent wind downscaling in a coupled fire-atmosphere model
J. Mandel, A. Farguell, A. K. Kochanski +2
We present a simple finite element formulation of mass-consistent approximation, and a fast multigrid iterative method with adaptive semicoarsening, which maintains the convergence…
Experimental Design of a Prescribed Burn Instrumentation
Adam K. Kochanski, Aimé Fournier, Jan Mandel
Observational data collected during experiments, such as the planned Fire and Smoke Model Evaluation Experiment (FASMEE), are critical for progressing and transitioning coupled fir…
Data Likelihood of Active Fires Satellite Detection and Applications to Ignition Estimation and Data Assimilation
James Haley, Angel Farguell Caus, Adam K. Kochanski +2
Data likelihood of fire detection is the probability of the observed detection outcome given the state of the fire spread model. We derive fire detection likelihood of satellite da…
Assimilation of fire perimeters and satellite detections by minimization of the residual in a fire spread model
Àngel Farguell Caus, James Haley, Adam K. Kochanski +2
Assimilation of data into a fire-spread model is formulated as an optimization problem. The level set equation, which relates the fire arrival time and the rate of spread, is allow…
