gemseo / uncertainty / sensitivity

analysis module

Abstract class for the computation and analysis of sensitivity indices.

The purpose of a sensitivity analysis is to qualify or quantify how the model’s uncertain inputs impact its outputs.

This analysis relies on SensitivityAnalysis computed from a MDODiscipline representing the model, a ParameterSpace describing the uncertain parameters and options associated with a particular concrete class inheriting from SensitivityAnalysis which is an abstract one.

class gemseo.uncertainty.sensitivity.analysis.SensitivityAnalysis(disciplines, parameter_space, n_samples=None, output_names=None, algo=None, algo_options=None, formulation='MDF', **formulation_options)[source]

Bases: object

Sensitivity analysis.

The SensitivityAnalysis class provides both the values of SensitivityAnalysis.indices and their graphical representations, from either the SensitivityAnalysis.plot() method, the SensitivityAnalysis.plot_radar() method or the SensitivityAnalysis.plot_bar() method.

It is also possible to use SensitivityAnalysis.sort_parameters() to get the parameters sorted according to SensitivityAnalysis.main_method. The SensitivityAnalysis.main_indices are indices computed with the latter.

Lastly, the SensitivityAnalysis.plot_comparison() method allows to compare the current SensitivityAnalysis with another one.
