• Authors: Oliver D\"urr, Po-Yu Fan, and Zong-Xian Yin
• Abstract summary: The parameters of error-correcting functions are determined during a calibration process. Due to various sources of noise, these parameters cannot be determined with precision, making it desirable to incorporate uncertainty in the calibration models. This study introduces Bayesian methods for the calibration of MEMS accelerometer data in a straightforward manner using recent advances in probabilistic programming.

• Abstract: This study aims to investigate the utilization of Bayesian techniques for the calibration of micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) accelerometers. These devices have garnered substantial interest in various practical applications and typically require calibration through error-correcting functions. The parameters of these error-correcting functions are determined during a calibration process. However, due to various sources of noise, these parameters cannot be determined with precision, making it desirable to incorporate uncertainty in the calibration models. Bayesian modeling offers a natural and complete way of reflecting uncertainty by treating the model parameters as variables rather than fixed values. Additionally, Bayesian modeling enables the incorporation of prior knowledge, making it an ideal choice for calibration. Nevertheless, it is infrequently used in sensor calibration. This study introduces Bayesian methods for the calibration of MEMS accelerometer data in a straightforward manner using recent advances in probabilistic programming.

• Sequential Monte Carlo applied to virtual flow meter calibration [0.0]
  In oil and gas production, virtual flow metering (VFM) is a popular soft-sensor that attempts to estimate multiphase flow rates in real time. The calibration is highly dependent on the application, both due to the great diversity of the models, and in the available measurements. This paper presents a calibration method based on the measurement provided by the production separator, and the assumption that the observed flow should be equal to the sum of flow rates from each individual well.

  State-of-the-art approaches for designing calibrated models rely on inflating the Gaussian process posterior variance. We present a calibration approach that generates predictive quantiles using a computation inspired by the vanilla Gaussian process posterior variance. Our approach is shown to yield a calibrated model under reasonable assumptions.

  We introduce an evaluation scheme to capture the fundamental error sources in camera calibration. The bias detection method uncovers smallest systematic errors and reveals imperfections of the calibration setup. A novel re-sampling-based uncertainty estimator enables uncertainty estimation under non-ideal conditions. We derive a simple uncertainty metric that is independent of the camera model.

  We show that deep-ensembles do not necessarily lead to improved calibration properties. We show that standard ensembling methods, when used in conjunction with modern techniques such as mixup regularization, can lead to less calibrated models. This text examines the interplay between three of the most simple and commonly used approaches to leverage deep learning when data is scarce.
