In this paper, we consider a new framework where two types of data are available: experimental data Y1,...,Yn supposed to be i.i.d from Y and outputs from a simulated reduced model. We develop a procedure for parameter estimation to characterize a feature of the phenomenon Y. We prove a risk bound qualifying the proposed procedure in terms of the number of experimental data n, reduced model complexity and computing budget m. The method we present is general enough to cover a wide range of applications. To illustrate our procedure we provide a numerical example.
Keywords: M-estimation, inverse problems, empirical processes, oracle inequalities, model selection
