The method estimates the following sensitivity indices:
Sensitivity index | When to Use |
---|---|
Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient (Pearson) | Computes the correlation coefficient. Interesting when model is linearly depending on parameters. |
Spearman's rank correlation coefficient (Spearman) | Computes the ranked correlation coefficient. Interesting when model is linearly or monotonically depending on parameters. |
Standardized Regression Coefficient (SRC) | Sets up a regression model from the raw data. Interesting when model is linearly depending on parameters. |
Standardized Rank Regression Coefficient (SRRC) | Sets up a regression model from the ranked data. Interesting when model is linearly or monotonically depending on parameters. |
Partial Correlation Coefficient (PCC) | Computes the correlation coefficient taking into account the rest of the varying parameters. Interesting when model is linearly depending on parameters. |
Partial Rank Correlation Coefficient (PRCC) | Computes the ranked correlation coefficient taking into account the rest of the varying parameters. Interesting when model is linearly or monotonically depending on parameters. |
EASI first order correlation coefficient (EASI) | Quantifies the first order effects, if model is additive this will take into account the full variance. |
The possible settings are:
Setting | Explanation |
---|---|
Iterations | The number of iterations per parameter. It equals the number of total model evaluations. |
Enable correlation | Enables correlation between input parameters. The correlation matrix is defined in the correlation matrix editor. |
Latin hypercube sampling | Uses latin hypercube sampling. If unchecked, ordinary Monte Carlo method is used. |
Seed | The seed used by methods random number generator. If it is Auto, a random seed will be used each time. |
