Fuzzy and Hybrid Approaches to Modelling Uncertainty in Flood Forecasting
This paper reviews non-probabilistic approaches of modelling uncertainty, particularly in flood forecasting and introduces a fuzzy set theory-based method for treating precipitation uncertainty in rainfall-runoff modelling, which allows the temporal and/or spatial disaggregation of precipitation. The results of the fuzzy set theory-based method are compared with the probabilistic approach using...
متن کاملModelling collocation uncertainty of 3D atmospheric profiles
Atmospheric thermodynamic data are gathered by high technology remote instruments such as radiosondes, giving rise to profiles that are usually modelled as functions depending only on height. The radiosonde balloons, however, drift away in the atmosphere resulting in not necessarily vertical but threedimensional (3D) trajectories. To model this kind of functional data, we introduce a “point bas...
متن کاملUncertainty in Calibrating Flood Propagation Models with Flood Boundaries Derived from Synthetic Aperture Radar Imagery
An instantaneous synthetic aperture radar (SAR) derived flood extent map helps retrieving the distributed conveyance parameters in one-dimensional flood routing models. These models are generally calibrated based on the sole use of ground data. This research aims to use earth observation (EO) data in order to establish a significant parameter retrieval strategy, providing an alternative model c...
متن کاملModelling Uncertainty in Physical Database Design
Physical database design can be marked as a crucial step in the overall design process of databases. The outcome of physical database design is a physical schema which describes the storage and access structures of the stored database. The selection of an eecient physical schema is an NP-complete problem. A signiicant number of eeorts has been reported to develop tools that assist in the select...
متن کاملSignposting: modelling uncertainty in design processes
In engineering design, there is often considerable uncertainty in knowledge about the product, for example, the lift generated by a wing might be unknown until wind tunnel tests have been performed. Equally, at the start of a design project, there is considerable uncertainty about the direction the process will take, which tools will be necessary, which tasks will be successful, which aspects o...
