Detecting where and when uncertainty is introduced to the modeling process is critical, as are strategies for minimizing, reconciling, or accommodating such uncertainty. Included chapters provide unique perspectives on uncertainty in archaeological modeling, ranging in both theoretical and methodological orientation. The strengths and weaknesses of various identification and mitigation techniques are discussed, in particular sensitivity analysis. The chapters demonstrate that for archaeological modeling purposes, there is no quick fix for uncertainty; indeed, each archaeological model requires intensive consideration of uncertainty and specific applications for calibration and validation. As very few such techniques have been problematized in a systematic manner or published in the archaeological literature, this volume aims to provide guidance and direction to other modelers in the field by distilling some basic principles for model testing derived from insight gathered in the case studies presented. Additionally, model applications and their attendant uncertainties are presented from distinct spatio-temporal contexts and will appeal to a broad range of archaeological modelers. This volume will also be of interest to non-modeling archaeologists, as consideration of uncertainty when interpreting the archaeological record is also a vital concern for the development of non-formal (or implicit) models of human behavior in the past. . 000755459 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed July 6, 2016) 000755459 650_0 $$aArchaeology$$xMethodology. 000755459 650_0 $$aElectronic digital computers. 000755459 7001_ $$aBurg, Marieka Brouwer,$$eeditor. 000755459 7001_ $$aPeeters, Hans,$$eeditor. 000755459 7001_ $$aLovis, William A.,$$eeditor. 000755459 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBrouwer Burg, Marieka$$tUncertainty and Sensitivity Analysis in Archaeological Computational Modeling$$dCham : Springer International Publishing,c2016$$z9783319278315 000755459 830_0 $$aInterdisciplinary contributions to archaeology. 000755459 852__ $$bebk 000755459 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-27833-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000755459 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:755459$$pGLOBAL_SET 000755459 980__ $$aEBOOK 000755459 980__ $$aBIB 000755459 982__ $$aEbook 000755459 983__ $$aOnline 000755459 994__ $$a92$$bISE
