Software Database on Value of Information and Uncertainty Quantification

The “Software Database on VoI & UQ” document summarizes existing tools that may be used in the context of a VoI analysis.

VoICalc: Tool for Value of Information quantification

The software tool VoICalc contains generic probabilistic models for moderately complex VoI problems and an interface for higher complexity VoI models such as the structural inspection and monitoring planning. Please mail Arifian Agusta Irman (ariag@byg.dtu.dk) and Sebastian Thöns (sebt@byg.dtu.dk) if you want to download the tool. More information can be found here: A. Agusta and S. Thöns.

Benchmark

Konstantinos Tatsis and Eleni Chatzi created a COST TU1402 Working Group 3 numerical benchmark. Which is presented on Chatzi's working group website and available for download on GitHub.

More approaches, algorithms and applications can be found in the TU1402 publications.
