Ensemble-based kernel learning for a class of data assimilation problems with imperfect forward simulators

Abstract: Simulator imperfection, often known as model error, is ubiquitous in practical data assimilation problems. Despite the enormous efforts dedicated to addressing this problem, properly handling simulator imperfection in data assimilation remains to be a challenging task. In this work, we propose an approach to dealing with simulator imperfection from a point of view of functional approximation that can be implemented through a certain machine learning method, such as kernel-based learning adopted in the current … Show more

“…As such, model errors are ubiquitous in geophysical data assimilation problems, whereas at the time being, how to properly handle model errors appears to remain as an open topic in data assimilation community. The practical challenges in dealing with model errors stem from factors like the complexities in quantitatively analyzing and characterizing the sources of model errors, the dependence of model errors on (uncertain) model variables, and consequently the tangled effects of both model errors and model variables on assimilation algorithms (Luo, 2019). Therefore, to account for model errors in data assimilation problems, it is necessary to adopt certain strategies that take into account these noticed challenges.…”

“…There are also investigations dedicated to studying the effects of model errors on history matching, but without assuming the independence between model errors and model variables, see, for example, (Stephen, 2007;Köpke et al, 2018;Luo, 2019). In practice, though, taking into account the dependence of model errors on model variables may nullify the conventional Gaussianity assumption adopted for the purpose of characterizing model errors.…”

“…In this broad framework, it is noted that the accuracy of parameter estimation for a given environmental system is jointly determined by the ability of the mathematical model to describe the system of interest (Sakov and Bocquet, 2018;Alfonzo and Oliver, 2020;Luo, 2019;Evensen, 2019), the ability of the assimilation algorithm used (Emerick and Reynolds, 2013;Bocquet and Sakov, 2014), as well as by the quantity and quality of available observations (Zha et al, 2019;Xia et al, 2018, and references therein).…”
