UnionEvent¶

class UnionEvent(*args)¶

Event defined as the union of several events.

An occurrence of one single event $E_i$ yields the occurrence of the system event (series system):

$E_{sys} = \bigcup_{i=1}^N E_i$

Parameters:

collsequence of RandomVector: Collection of events, evaluated from left to right. Ordering the most probable events first can help to avoid evaluating the last ones. In case the ranking of the probabilities of the events is unknown, it can be quickly estimated with (for example) a FORM analysis of each individual event.

Examples

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> dim = 2
>>> X = ot.RandomVector(ot.Normal(dim))
>>> f1 = ot.SymbolicFunction(['x1', 'x2'], ['x1'])
>>> f2 = ot.SymbolicFunction(['x1', 'x2'], ['x2'])
>>> Y1 = ot.CompositeRandomVector(f1, X)
>>> Y2 = ot.CompositeRandomVector(f2, X)
>>> e1 = ot.ThresholdEvent(Y1, ot.Less(), 0.0)
>>> e2 = ot.ThresholdEvent(Y2, ot.Greater(), 0.0)
>>> event = ot.UnionEvent([e1, e2])

Then it can be used for sampling (or with simulation algorithms):

>>> p = event.getSample(1000).computeMean()

Notes

Let’s note $\vect{Y}=\Tr{(Y_1,\dots,Y_n)}$ a random vector and $I \in [1,n]$ a set of indices. If $\vect{Y}$ is a UsualRandomVector, the subvector is defined by $\tilde{\vect{Y}}=\Tr{(Y_i)}_{i \in I}$ . If $\vect{Y}$ is a CompositeRandomVector, defined by $\vect{Y}=f(\vect{X})$ with $f=(f_1,\dots,f_n)$ , $f_i$ some scalar functions, the subvector is $\tilde{\vect{Y}}=(f_i(\vect{X}))_{i \in I}$ .

Examples

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> distribution = ot.Normal([0.0, 0.0], [1.0, 1.0], ot.CorrelationMatrix(2))
>>> randomVector = ot.RandomVector(distribution)
>>> ot.RandomGenerator.SetSeed(0)
