Doctoral Dissertations
In this thesis, we focus on Uncertainty Quantification and Sensitivity Analysis, which can provide performance guarantees for predictive models built with both aleatoric and epistemic uncertainties, as well as data, and identify which components in a model have the most influence on predictions of our quantities of interest. In the first part (Chapter 2), we propose non-parametric methods for both local and global sensitivity analysis of chemical reaction models with correlated parameter dependencies. The developed mathematical and statistical tools are applied to a benchmark Langmuir competitive adsorption model on a close packed platinum surface, whose parameters, estimated from quantum-scale computations, …
