Title: Reconciling Simulator and Observational Data
Author(s): Thomas Santner*+
Companies: Ohio State University
Keywords: Computer Experiment ; Simulator Data ; Calibration
Abstract:

When using an experimental platform that consists of a deterministic simulator to be calibrated with observational data, researchers are often faced with a variety of compromises. This roundtable will focus on issues related to the observed data. The data available may only test a part of the simulator or may consist of different data sets for different parts of the code. The observed data may come from a system that is related to, but not the same as, that which described the mathematics underlying the simulator. The inputs for the observational data may be measured with error. This roundtable will seek to pool the experiences of those faced with calibration in such a framework that will identify a set of best, or at least useful, practices.
