Sensitivity analysis from a single input/output sample

Sébastien Da Veiga, Fabrice Gamboa, Thierry Klein +2

The main objective of this paper is to estimate optimally Sobol' indices at any order when a unique input/output i.i.d.\ sample is available. Our approach stands on three main ingr…

Kernel Stein Discrepancy thinning: a theoretical perspective of pathologies and a practical fix with regularization

Clément Bénard, Brian Staber, Sébastien Da Veiga

Stein thinning is a promising algorithm proposed by (Riabiz et al., 2022) for post-processing outputs of Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). The main principle is to greedily minimize…

A sampling criterion for constrained Bayesian optimization with uncertainties

Reda El Amri, Rodolphe Le Riche, Céline Helbert +2

We consider the problem of chance constrained optimization where it is sought to optimize a function and satisfy constraints, both of which are affected by uncertainties. The real…

MDA for random forests: inconsistency, and a practical solution via the Sobol-MDA

Clément Bénard, Sébastien da Veiga, Erwan Scornet

Variable importance measures are the main tools to analyze the black-box mechanisms of random forests. Although the mean decrease accuracy (MDA) is widely accepted as the most effi…

Global Sensitivity Analysis with Dependence Measures

Sébastien Da Veiga

Global sensitivity analysis with variance-based measures suffers from several theoretical and practical limitations, since they focus only on the variance of the output and handle…
