Variance Decomposition Using an IRT Measurement Model
Large scale research projects in behaviour genetics and genetic epidemiology are often based on questionnaire or interview data. Typically, a number of items is presented to a number of subjects, the subjects' sum scores on the items are computed, and the variance of sum scores is decomposed into a number of variance components. This paper discusses several disadvantages of the approach of anal...
متن کاملEstimating Sobol sensitivity indices using correlations
Sensitivity analysis is a crucial tool in the development and evaluation of complex mathematical models. Sobol’s method is a variance-based global sensitivity analysis technique that has been applied to computational models to assess the relative importance of input parameters on the output. This paper introduces new notation that describes the Sobol indices in terms of the Pearson correlation ...
متن کاملSobol' sensitivity analysis of a complex environmental model
Complex environmental models are controlled by a high number of parameters. Accurately estimating the values of all these parameters is almost impossible. Sensitivity analysis (SA) results enable the selection of the parameters to include in a calibration procedure, but can also assist in the identification of the model processes. Additionally, a sensitivity analysis can yield crucial informati...
متن کاملVariance Components and Generalized Sobol’ Indices
This paper introduces generalized Sobol’ indices, compares strategies for their estimation, and makes a systematic search for efficient estimators. Of particular interest are contrasts, sums of squares and indices of bilinear form which allow a reduced number of function evaluations compared to alternatives. The bilinear framework includes some efficient estimators from Saltelli (2002) and Maun...
متن کاملInvestigating Parameter Sensitivity for Management in Snow-Driven Watersheds
Recent projections of environmental change have shown possible variation to temperature and precipitation patterns due to climate change. In snowmelt-dominated watersheds, adapting to such environmental changes requires a detailed understanding of hydrological processes in addition to historical snow cover and streamflow data. Snow models are often incorporated as an additional component of hyd...
