Goodness of Fit
From SCECpedia
Jump to navigationJump to searchSCEC computational scientists often need to compare simulation parameters against observed geophysical and seismic observations. We often need to define what parameters we compare and how to evaluate groups of comparisons. Examples of Goodness of Fit in SCEC research includes Broadband Platform development, in the SCEC CVM development, in CISN EEW evaluation, and CSEP short term earthquake forecast testing.
Mayhew and Olsen
Mayhew and Olsen have developed and published the following paper on goodness of fit for ground motion modeling groups.

CVM-T
SCEC CVM development involves improving the underlying earth structure model, adding new material databases like geotechnical layer information, and codes for meshing and populating large scale meshes.
