Uncertainty-aware data assimilation through variational inference
Data assimilation, consisting in the combination of a dynamical model with a set of noisy and incomplete observations in order to infer the state of a system over time, involves uncertainty in most settings. Building upon an existing deterministic machine learning approach, we propose a variational inference-based extension in which the predicted state follows a multivariate Gaussian distribution. Using the chaotic Lorenz-96 dynamics as a testing ground, we show that our new model enables to obtain nearly perfectly calibrated predictions, and can be integrated in a wider variational data assimilation pipeline in order to achieve greater benefit from increasing lengths of data assimilation windows. Our code is available at https://github.com/anthony-frion/Stochastic_CODA.
