Objectives:
• Coupling complementary models to minimize prediction errors in real scenarios.
• Study these approaches and compare their results under changing conditions
• Analyze calibration and prediction errors depending on models coupled.
• Analyze how soft and hard changes in conditions affect the accuracy of every approach.

• Error is the normalized symmetric difference between maps:
Reference fire is a synthetic fire evolved over this terrain during 18 hours
There has been done 2 calibration and 2 prediction steps
4 methodologies use GA with a random initial populations of 50 individuals

ExperimentationTwo-stage methodologyIntroduction Conclusions &
Future workCoupling models
Fire models parameters are difficult to know or even estimate so calibration techniques are interesting to reduce this uncertainly.
There have been studied and compared 4 methodologies which combine models and improve fire spread prediction.
Prognostic and diagnostic models allows us to have more precise information to our system.
These models introduce a computational overhead that must be tackled.
It must be performed a deeper analysis working with more terrains, different conditions and GA configurations
