内容摘要:

In this talk, we discuss a multilevel framework for the uncertainty quantification in inverse problems. It is based on the Generalized Multiscale Finite Element Method (GMsFEM) and Multilevel Monte Carlo (MLMC) methods. The former provides a hierarchy of approximations at different resolutions, whereas the latter gives an efficient way to estimate quantities of interest using samples on different levels. By suitably choosing the number of samples at different levels, one can use less of expensive forward simulations on the fine grid, while more of inexpensive forward simulations on the coarse grid in Monte Carlo simulations. Further, a Multilevel Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MLMCMC) method is discussed, which sequentially screens the proposal with different levels of approximations and reduces the number of evaluations required on the fine grid, while combining the samples at different levels to arrive at an accurate estimate. The framework seamlessly integrates the multiscale feature of the GMsFEM with the multilevel feature of the MLMC methods. Numerical results will be presented.
