Particle Approximations For Partially Observed Fluid Dynamics Models

Professor Dan Crisan, Mathematics, Imperial College London

KAUST

Fluid dynamics models are ubiquitous in a multitude of applications. One of the most important applications of fluid dynamics models is numerical weather prediction. Modern numerical weather prediction combines sophisticated nonlinear fluid dynamics models with increasingly accurate high-dimensional data. This process is called data assimilation and it is performed every day at all major operational weather centers across the world. Data assimilation (DA) requires massive computing capabilities as realistic atmosphere-ocean models typically have billions of degrees of freedom. I will give a short overview of the ongoing research that aims to drastically decrease the required DA computational effort by reducing the dimension of the models involved and using stochastic perturbations to account for the unresolved scales. The incorporation of observation data is done by using particle approximations suitably adapted to solve high-dimensional problems.

Is probability theory the only viable solution to modelling statistical information?

Many alternatives to the probabilistic modelling of information have been proposed since the birth of modern Statistics; yet, few have been successfully applied to the complex inference problems that modern Statisticians are faced with.

B2 5220

Abstract Flash floods are one of the most common natural disasters worldwide, causing thousands of casualties every year. A combination of fixed and mobile sensors can be used to track these events. In particular, the emergence of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) could enable the monitoring of floods over large geographical areas. In this talk, we focus on the problems of sensing, data assimilation, and trajectory planning for a swarm of mobile agents (for example UAVs) sensing floods We first show that deep-learning can efficiently approximate the flood evolution over time, given external
