Learning-Based Predictive Models: A Pew Approach to Integrating Large-Scale Simulations and Experiments

Brian Spears

Executive Summary

We are employing machine learning techniques to develop more accurate predictive models that are trained jointly on both simulation and experimental data, comparing more forms of data than is typical, such as images, vector-valued data, and scalars. This research supports the national energy and security missions that rely on predictive models.
