Formulating the History-Matching Problem
摘要
In this chapter, we will introduce and discuss the basic formulation of the history-matching problem. We start by presenting a brief historical summary of the development of the formulation of the history matching problem. Then, we introduce the fundamental assumption of a Gaussian prior and likelihood and connect the standard formulation of a quadratic cost function to Bayes’ theorem. Finally, we discuss some possible methods for solving this problem.
