External Bayesian Analysis for Computer Simulators*
Year: 2011
Type: book-chapter
Abstract: Computer simulators offer a powerful approach for studying complex physical systems. We consider their use in current practice and the role of external uncertainty in bridging the gap between the properties of the model and of the system. The interpretation of this uncertainty analysis raises questions about the role and meaning of the Bayesian approach. We summarize some theory which is helpful to clarify and amplify the role of external specifications of uncertainty, and illustrate some of the types of calculation suggested by this approach.
