Parameterization scheme probability

We briefly summarize the parameterization schemes for f-electron energy levels, intraconfiguration transition probabilities, and the electron-phonon interaction, and review the current experimental situation for each area. We shall also speculate on potentially fertile areas of future investigation. 

M e ]R" that parameterize the model class jMm are quantified by probability density functions (PDFs), which are updated in an inference scheme based on the available information. Measurement and modeling uncertainty are taken into account by modeling the respective errors as random variables PDFs are appointed to i/g and i/d, which are parameterized by parameters 0c and 0D These parameters are added to the structural model parameters 0yi to form the general model parameter set 0 = 0m, ...
