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))"]

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())
[0.00195286]

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]),
