Speaker
Description
This talk will concern developing and disseminating statistical tools for answering some industrial issues. It will be fully based on my 20-years’ experience as a statistician research engineer and expert in the French research institute of nuclear energy (CEA) and the French company of electricity (EDF). I will particularly focus on the domain of uncertainty quantification in numerical simulation and computer experiments modeling. For my company, in a small-size data context (that occur in the frequent cases of expensive experiments and/or limited available information), the numerical model exploration techniques allow to better understand a risky situation and, sometimes, to solve a safety issue. I will highlight some successful projects (always collective), emphasizing on the scientific innovative parts (kriging metamodeling and global sensitivity analysis in high dimension) but also the organizational reasons of the success.
