Abstract

When outputs of computational models are time series or functions of other continuous variables like distance, angle, etc., it can be that primary interest is in the general pattern or structure of the curve. In these cases, model sensitivity and uncertainty analysis focuses on the effect of model input choices and uncertainties in the overall shapes of such curves. We explore methods for characterizing a set of functions generated by a series of model runs for the purpose of exploring relationships between these functions and the model inputs.
