This book provides an insider?s view of how to combine two mature fields, scientific computing and Bayesian inference, into a powerful language leveraging the capabilities of both components for computational efficiency, high resolution power and uncertainty quantification ability. The impact of Bayesian scientific computing has been particularly significant in the area of computational inverse problems where the data are often scarce or of low quality, but some characteristics of the unknown solution may be available a priori. The ability to combine the flexibility of the Bayesian probabilistic framework with efficient numerical methods has contributed to the popularity of Bayesian inversion, with the prior distribution being the counterpart of classical regularization. However, the interplay between Bayesian inference and numerical analysis is much richer than providing an alternative way to regularize inverse problems, as demonstrated by the discussion of time dependent problems, iterative methods, and sparsity promoting priors in this book. The quantification of uncertainty in computed solutions and model predictions is another area where Bayesian scientific computing plays a critical role. This book demonstrates that Bayesian inference and scientific computing have much more in common than what one may expect, and gradually builds a natural interface between these two areas. 410 0$aApplied Mathematical Sciences,$x2196-968X ;$v215 606 $aMathematics$xData processing 606 $aAlgebras, Linear 606 $aComputer science$xMathematics 606 $aComputational Science and Engineering 606 $aComputational Mathematics and Numerical Analysis 606 $aLinear Algebra 606 $aMathematics of Computing 615 0$aMathematics$xData processing. 615 0$aAlgebras, Linear. 615 0$aComputer science$xMathematics. 615 14$aComputational Science and Engineering. 615 24$aComputational Mathematics and Numerical Analysis. 615 24$aLinear Algebra. 615 24$aMathematics of Computing. 676 $a519.542 676 $a519.542 700 $aCalvetti$b Daniela$0524724 702 $aSomersalo$b Erkki 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910682585103321 996 $aBayesian scientific computing$93291891 997 $aUNINA
