Information Gap Analysis

All the figures below are generated using examples/model_analysis/infogap.jl.

There are 4 uncertain observations at times t = [1,2,3,4]
There are 4 possible models that can be applied to match the data
1. y(t) = a * t + c
2. y(t) = a * t^(1.1) + b * t + c
3. y(t) = a * t^n + b * t + c
4. y(t) = a * exp(t * n) + b * t + c
There are 4 unknown model parameters with uniform prior probability functions:
1. a = Uniform(-10, 10)
2. b = Uniform(-10, 10)
3. c = Uniform(-5, 5)
4. n = Uniform(-3, 3)
The model prediction for t = 5 is unknown and information gap prediction uncertainty needs to be evaluated
The horizon of information gap uncertainty h is applied to define the acceptable deviations in the 4 uncertain observations.
