Environment

The work of the PhD candidate will be supervised by P.M. Congedo, E. Denimal Goy and Olivier Le Maître, experts in uncertainty quantification methods. The work will be conducted in the Platon team, a joint research group between Ecole Polytechnique and CNRS, hosted by the Center for Applied Mathematics (CMAP) of Ecole Polytechnique.

The Platon project-team focuses on developing innovative methods and algorithms for uncertainty mangament in numerical models, including advanced calibration strategies from data (observations, measurements, other model predictions) and uncertainty reduction.

Scientific context

Many engineering and scientific problems involve complex physical phenomena that are difficult—and sometimes impossible—to reproduce experimentally. Moreover, experimental campaigns are often costly in time, resources, and logistics. In this context, numerical simulat...
