DESCRIPTION:The finite element method (FEM) is one of the great triumphs o
 f applied mathematics\, numerical analysis and software development. Recen
 t developments in sensor and signalling technologies enable the phenomenol
 ogical study of systems. The connection between sensor data and FEM is res
 tricted to solving inverse problems placing unwarranted faith in the fidel
 ity of the mathematical description of the system. If one concedes mis-spe
 cification between generative reality and the FEM then a framework to syst
 ematically characterise this uncertainty is required. This talk will prese
 nt a statistical construction of the FEM which systematically blends mathe
 matical description with observations.
