Abstract
We propose a method that uses a sequential design instead of a space filling design for estimating tuning parameters of a complex computer model. The goal is to bring the computer model output closer to the real system output. The method fits separate Gaussian process (GP) models to the available data from the physical experiment and the computer experiment and minimizes the discrepancy between the predictions from the GP models to obtain estimates of the tuning parameters. A criterion based on the discrepancy between the predictions from the two GP models and the standard error of prediction for the computer experiment output is then used to obtain a design point for the next run of the computer experiment. The tuning parameters are re-estimated using the augmented data set. The steps are repeated until the budget for the computer experiment data is exhausted. Simulation studies show that the proposed method performs better in bringing a computer model closer to the real system than methods that use a space filling design.
