Abstract:
Simulation-based predictions are increasingly driving high-stakes decisions that affect our welfare and security. Yet, building trust in these predictions remains a fundamental challenge. In this talk, I will discuss how operator learning can be tailored to enable reliable, predictive scientific computing that would otherwise be computationally intractable. I focus on the design and analysis of architectures and learning formulations for two distinct problems: inelastic homogenization in multiscale modeling, and amortized Bayesian inversion in uncertainty quantification. Finally, I outline my vision for integrating theory, experimentation, and computation to facilitate risk-aware, trustworthy decision-making.
