Approximating Computationally Intensive Functions and Sampling Design in High Dimensions - Methodology UQ
This is a core problem in constructing surrogates, with application to uncertainty propagation, inference, prediction, and design.
Relevant research questions:
Cross-examination of different methods:
Projection, regression, interpolation, L1 minimization, Gaussian process/kriging, etc
Appropriate measures of performance/accuracy and their dependence on the intended use of the surrogate model.
Error analysis and convergence properties
Sparse representations: l1 minimization, pursuit algorithms, low-rank approximation
“Optimal” choices of nodes/design points for different methods
Adaptive approaches: a posteriori error estimates; derivative properties; dimension reduction; additional optimization of nodes; ANOVA; relation to sequential design of experiments
Interpreting and combining uncertainty information from stochastic surrogates (e.g., Gaussian process variance) and deterministic error bounds
Deriving optimality criteria and search algorithms that are good for high dimensions
Borrow existing theoretical results in high dimensional statistics (Donoho, etc.) to shed light on the structure of “optimal” designs in high dimension.
Additional issues—
Lack of regularity: discovering and approximating discontinuities in high dimensions
Incorporating gradient information
Enforcing constraints on output and input domains
Fault tolerance and missing samples
