TL;DR: The Monte Carlo N-Particle code is employed to provide high-fidelity simulations of radiation transport within an urban domain to develop efficient and accurate surrogate models of the detector responses that provide an efficient framework for Bayesian inference and experimental design.

Application and Evaluation of Surrogate Models for Radiation Source Search

Cook, J. A., Smith, R. C., Hite, J. M., Stefanescu, R., & Mattingly, J. (2019, December 12). Algorithms, Vol. 12.

By: J. Cook n, R. Smith n , J. Hite n, R. Stefanescu & J. Mattingly n 

author keywords: surrogate modeling; bayesian inference; radiation source localization
topics (OpenAlex): Probabilistic and Robust Engineering Design; Gaussian Processes and Bayesian Inference; Advanced Multi-Objective Optimization Algorithms
TL;DR: This work considers the problem of inferring the 2D location and intensity of a radiation source in an urban environment using a ray-tracing model based on Boltzmann transport theory, and considers surrogate models based on Legendre polynomials, multivariate adaptive regression splines, radial basis functions, Gaussian processes, and neural networks.
