A Generalized Bayesian Approach to Model Calibration

Tony Tohme, Kevin Vanslette, Kamal Youcef-Toumi

In model development, model calibration and validation play complementary roles toward learning reliable models. In this article, we expand the Bayesian Validation Metric framework…

Vectorized Uncertainty Propagation and Input Probability Sensitivity Analysis

Kevin Vanslette, Arwa Alanqari, Zeyad Al-awwad +1

In this article we construct a theoretical and computational process for assessing Input Probability Sensitivity Analysis (IPSA) using a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) enabled tech…

A General Model Validation and Testing Tool

Kevin Vanslette, Tony Tohme, Kamal Youcef-Toumi

We construct and propose the "Bayesian Validation Metric" (BVM) as a general model validation and testing tool. We find the BVM to be capable of representing all of the standard va…

Why Simple Quadrature is just as good as Monte Carlo

Kevin Vanslette, Abdullatif Al Alsheikh, Kamal Youcef-Toumi

We motive and calculate Newton--Cotes quadrature integration variance and compare it directly with Monte Carlo (MC) integration variance. We find an equivalence between determinist…

The Design of Global Correlation Quantifiers and Continuous Notions of Statistical Sufficiency

Nicholas Carrara, Kevin Vanslette

Using first principles from inference, we design a set of functionals for the purposes of \textit{ranking} joint probability distributions with respect to their correlations. Start…

The Inferential Design of Entropy and its Application to Quantum Measurements

Kevin Vanslette

This thesis synthesizes probability and entropic inference with Quantum Mechanics (QM) and quantum measurement [1-6]. It is shown that the standard and quantum relative entropies a…
