Notes

Sensitivity algorithms rely on the definition of specific designs.

The generate() method of this class produces a Sample to be supplied to the contructor of one of the SobolIndicesAlgorithm implementations:

The chosen SobolIndicesAlgorithm implementation then uses the sample as input design, which means it represents (but is not a realization of) a random vector $\vect{X} = \left( X^1, \ldots, X^{n_X} \right)$ .

Either the Distribution of $\vect{X}$ or a WeightedExperiment that represents it must be supplied to the class constructor.

If a WeightedExperiment is supplied, the class uses it directly.

If the distribution of $\vect{X}$ is supplied, the class generates a WeightedExperiment. To do this, it duplicates the distribution: every marginal is repeated once to produce a $2 n_X$ -dimensional distribution. This trick makes it possible to choose a WeightedExperiment with non-iid samples (that is a LHSExperiment or a LowDiscrepancyExperiment) to represent the original $n_X$ -dimensional distribution.

The type of WeightedExperiment depends on the value of 'SobolIndicesExperiment-SamplingMethod' in the ResourceMap:

'MonteCarlo' for a MonteCarloExperiment.

'LHS' for an LHSExperiment with alwaysShuffle and randomShift set to True.

'QMC' for a LowDiscrepancyExperiment (with randomize flag set to False) built from a SobolSequence.

'MonteCarlo' is the default choice because it allows the chosen SobolIndicesAlgorithm implementation to use the asymptotic distribution of the estimators of the Sobol’ indices.

Note that 'QMC' is only possible if $2 n_X \leqslant$ SobolSequence.MaximumDimension. If 'QMC' is specified but $2 n_X >$ SobolSequence.MaximumDimension, the class falls back to 'LHS'.

>>> from openturns import SobolSequence
>>> print(SobolSequence.MaximumDimension)
1111

Regardless of the type of WeightedExperiment, the class splits it into two samples with the same size $N$ : $\mat{A}$ and $\mat{B}$ . Their columns are mixed in order to produce a very large sample: the inputDesign argument taken by one of the constructors of every SobolIndicesAlgorithm implementation.

If computeSecondOrder is set to False, the input design is of size $N(2+n_X)$ . The first $N$ rows contain the sample $\mat{A}$ and the next $N$ rows the sample $\mat{B}$ . The last $N n_X$ rows contain $n_X$ copies of $\mat{A}$ , each with a different column replaced by the corresponding column from $\mat{B}$ (they are the matrices $\mat{E}^i$ from the documentation page of SobolIndicesAlgorithm).

If computeSecondOrder is set to True and $n_X = 2$ , the input design is the same as in the case where computeSecondOrder is False (see [saltelli2002]).

If computeSecondOrder is set to True and $n_X \neq 2$ , the input design size is $N(2+2 n_X)$ . The first $N(2+n_X)$ rows are the same as when computeSecondOrder is False. The last $N n_X$ rows contain $n_X$ copies of $\mat{B}$ , each with a different column replaced by the corresponding column from $\mat{A}$ (they are the matrices $\mat{C}^i$ from the documentation page of SobolIndicesAlgorithm).

Examples

Create a sample suitable to estimate first and total order Sobol’ indices:

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> ot.RandomGenerator.SetSeed(0)
>>> formula = ['sin(pi_*X1)+7*sin(pi_*X2)^2+0.1*(pi_*X3)^4*sin(pi_*X1)']
>>> model = ot.SymbolicFunction(['X1', 'X2', 'X3'], formula)
>>> distribution = ot.ComposedDistribution([ot.Uniform(-1.0, 1.0)] * 3)
>>> size = 10
>>> experiment = ot.SobolIndicesExperiment(distribution, size)
>>> sample = experiment.generate()

Create a sample suitable to estimate first, total order and second order Sobol’ indices:

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> ot.RandomGenerator.SetSeed(0)
>>> formula = ['sin(pi_*X1)+7*sin(pi_*X2)^2+0.1*(pi_*X3)^4*sin(pi_*X1)']
>>> model = ot.SymbolicFunction(['X1', 'X2', 'X3'], formula)
>>> distribution = ot.ComposedDistribution([ot.Uniform(-1.0, 1.0)] * 3)
>>> size = 10
>>> computeSecondOrder = True
>>> experiment = ot.SobolIndicesExperiment(distribution, size, computeSecondOrder)
>>> sample = experiment.generate()
