The twenty-sixth UQSay seminar on UQ, DACE and related topics, organized by L2S, MSSMAT, LMT and EDF R&D, will take place online on Thursday afternoon, March 18, 2021.
2–3 PM — Amaya Nogales Gómez (I3S, Sophia Antipolis) — [slides]
Incremental space-filling design based on coverings and spacings: improving upon low discrepancy sequences
The paper addresses the problem of defining families of ordered sequences {x_i} i∈N of elements of a compact subset X of R^d whose prefixes X_n = {x_i} i=1, ..., n, for all orders n, have good space-filling properties as measured by the dispersion (covering radius) criterion. Our ultimate aim is the definition of incremental algorithms that generate sequences X_n with small optimality gap, i.e., with a small increase in the maximum distance between points of X and the elements of X_n with respect to the optimal solution X_n. The paper is a first step in this direction, presenting incremental design algorithms with proven optimality bound with respect to one-parameter families of criteria based on coverings and spacings that both converge to dispersion for large values of their parameter.
Joint work with Luc Pronzato and Maria-Joao Rendas.

Organizing committee: Julien Bect (L2S), Emmanuel Vazquez (L2S), Didier Clouteau (MSSMAT), Filippo Gatti (MSSMAT), Fernando Lopez Caballero (MSSMAT), Amélie Fau (LMT), Bertrand Iooss (EDF R&D).
Practical details: the seminar will be held online using Microsoft Teams.
If you want to attend this seminar (or any of the forthcoming online UQSay seminars), and if you do not already have access to the UQSay group on Teams, simply send an email and you will be invited. Please specify which email address the invitation must be sent to (this has to be the address associated with your Teams account).
You will find the link to the seminar on the "General" UQSay channel on Teams, approximately 15 minutes before the beginning.
The technical side of things: you can use Teams either directly from you web browser or using the "fat client", which is available for most platforms (Windows, Linux, Mac, Android & iOS). We strongly recommend the latter option whenever possible. Please give it a try before the seminar to anticipate potential problems.
