This lecture will discuss meta-models (also called surrogate models or emulators) and their role in emulation of computer models. This lecture will focus on one particular emulator, the Gaussian Process (GP) Model. We will discuss the functional form of the GP, how GPs differ from other models, how to estimate the parameters governing the GP, tr...

This talk compares three approaches for model selection: classical least squares methods, information theoretic criteria, and Bayesian approaches. Least squares methods are not model selection methods although one can select the model that yields the smallest sum-of-squared error function. Information theoretic approaches balance overfitting wit...
