This paper introduces a probabilistic method for generating high-quality data from a combination of low- and high-fidelity data sources. The approach uses graph Laplacian techniques to define a Gaussian prior density, and then incorporates high-fidelity data points through conjugate likelihood terms. The resulting posterior density is also multivariate Gaussian, allowing for efficient computation of the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimate and its covariance. Two methods are proposed for solving linear systems efficiently: spectral truncation and low-rank approximation. The multi-fidelity approach is demonstrated on various problems in solid and fluid mechanics, showcasing improved accuracy when using a small fraction of high-fidelity data.

Imagine having a way to combine different types of data to get better results. That’s what this research paper is about! It proposes a new method for combining low-quality data with some higher-quality data points to create more accurate predictions. The approach uses mathematical techniques to mix the two types of data together, allowing for more precise calculations. The researchers tested their method on various problems in fields like mechanics and fluid dynamics, showing that it can significantly improve the accuracy of the results. This breakthrough has the potential to revolutionize how we analyze complex systems!
