Sobol’ sensitivity indices from chaos

In this example we are going to compute global sensitivity indices from a functional chaos decomposition.

We study the Borehole function that models water flow through a borehole:

\frac{2 \pi T_u (H_u - H_l)}{\ln{r/r_w}(1+\frac{2 L T_u}{\ln(r/r_w) r^2_w K_w}\frac{T_u}{T_l})}

With parameters:

  • r_w: radius of borehole (m)

  • r: radius of influence (m)

  • T_u: transmissivity of upper aquifer (m^2/yr)

  • H_u: potentiometric head of upper aquifer (m)

  • T_l: transmissivity of lower aquifer (m^2/yr)

  • H_l: potentiometric head of lower aquifer (m)

  • L: length of borehole (m)

  • K_w: hydraulic conductivity of borehole (m/yr)

borehole model

dimension = 8
input_names = ['rw', 'r', 'Tu', 'Hu', 'Tl', 'Hl', 'L', 'Kw']
model = ot.SymbolicFunction(input_names,
                            ['(2*pi_*Tu*(Hu-Hl))/(ln(r/rw)*(1+(2*L*Tu)/(ln(r/rw)*rw^2*Kw)+Tu/Tl))'])

         ot.LogNormal(7.71, 1.0056),
         ot.Uniform(63070.0, 115600.0),

         ot.Uniform(1120.0, 1680.0),
         ot.Uniform(9855.0, 12045.0)]
distribution = ot.ComposedDistribution(coll)
distribution.setDescription(input_names)

Freeze r, Tu, Tl from model to go faster

selection = [1,2,4]
complement = ot.Indices(selection).complement(dimension)
distribution = distribution.getMarginal(complement)
model = ot.ParametricFunction(model, selection, distribution.getMarginal(selection).getMean())
input_names_copy = list(input_names)
input_names = itemgetter(*complement)(input_names)
dimension = len(complement)

design of experiment

size = 1000
X = distribution.getSample(size)
Y = model(X)

create a functional chaos model

algo = ot.FunctionalChaosAlgorithm(X, Y)
algo.run()
result = algo.getResult()
print(result.getResiduals())
print(result.getRelativeErrors())

Out:

[0.00211143]
[9.46566e-09]

Quick summary of sensitivity analysis

sensitivityAnalysis = ot.FunctionalChaosSobolIndices(result)
print(sensitivityAnalysis.summary())

draw Sobol’ indices

first_order = [sensitivityAnalysis.getSobolIndex(i) for i in range(dimension)]
total_order = [sensitivityAnalysis.getSobolTotalIndex(i) for i in range(dimension)]
graph = ot.SobolIndicesAlgorithm.DrawSobolIndices(input_names, first_order, total_order)
view = viewer.View(graph)
Sobol' indices

We saw that total order indices are close to first order, so the higher order indices must be all quite close to 0

for i in range(dimension):
    for j in range(i):
        print(input_names[i] + ' & '+ input_names[j], ":", sensitivityAnalysis.getSobolIndex([i, j]))
