Global sensitivity analysis aims at quantifying respective effects of input random variables (or combinations thereof) onto variance of a physical or mathematical model response. Among the abundant literature on sensitivity measures, Sobol'…
The so-called polynomial chaos expansion is widely used in computer experiments. For example, it is a powerful tool to estimate Sobol' sensitivity indices. In this paper, we consider generalized chaos expansions built on general tensor…

For a function $f$ over the discrete cube, the total $L_1$ influence of $f$ is defined as $\sum_{i=1}^n \|\partial_i f\|_1$, where $\partial_i f$ denotes the discrete derivative of $f$ in the direction $i$. In this work, we show that the…

High dimensional integrals can be approximated well by quasi-Monte Carlo methods. However, determining the number of function values needed to obtain the desired accuracy is difficult without some upper bound on an appropriate semi-norm of…

Global sensitivity analysis (GSA) is used to quantify the influence of uncertain variables in a mathematical model. Prior to performing GSA, the user must specify (or implicitly assume), a probability distribution to model the uncertainty,…

Many Bayesian inference problems involve high-dimensional models where the performance of standard importance sampling (IS) methods often degrades rapidly as the dimensionality increases. Classical analyses of IS typically rely on the…
In the era of "big data", it is becoming more of a challenge to not only build state-of-the-art predictive models, but also gain an understanding of what's really going on in the data. For example, it is often of interest to know which, if…
