Forecasting and management using imperfect models, with a focus on weather and climate. Research into complex systems is predicted to be the focus of twenty-first century science, since most of the problems of simple systems are solved. Examples include the weather and climate, economies, argriculture, ecologies, the mind and brain, genetics, biochemistry. Confidence in the reliability and usefulness of models will have significant bearing on how these models are used by decision making and how ....Forecasting and management using imperfect models, with a focus on weather and climate.

Specific immediate benefits of the project include better policy and management responses to climate change and servere weather events.Read moreRead less
Stochastic Geometry for Multi-sensor Data Fusion System. The aim of this project is to develop efficient algorithms for tracking and sensor management in a multi-sensor multi-target environment. Finite random set theory provides a natural way of representing a random number of (random) object states, an issue that has been largely ignored in the tracking literature until recently. Although a satisfactory foundation for multiple object filtering has been provided by random set theory, in this ear ....Stochastic Geometry for Multi-sensor Data Fusion System. The aim of this project is to develop efficient algorithms for tracking and sensor management in a multi-sensor multi-target environment. Finite random set theory provides a natural way of representing a random number of (random) object states, an issue that has been largely ignored in the tracking literature until recently. Although a satisfactory foundation for multiple object filtering has been provided by random set theory, in this early stage no algorithm capable of tracking many targets has emerged from this framework. We are confident that efficient algorithms can be developed by exploiting the insights and mathematical tools of stochastic geometryRead moreRead less
