Computer models of physical and biological systems Matching model outputs to known data Global sensitivity GoSUM software Calibration of model of human cardiovascular system Conclusion 2
Complex models: dynamical systems 100s of parameters 10s of outputs 3
Commonly, the cost function to be minimized is L 2 norm of the difference between model outputs and real data For time-dependent outputs, both spectral and time domains can be matched, resulting in a better fit static modeldynamic model 4
5 Global measure of importance of model parameters for the outputs of interest NOT local sensitivity, e.g. partial derivatives around the nominal value Global sensitivity allows us to find parameters which are important over the entire range of interest of model parameters Very computationally intensive for very large models
6 Derivative-based, e.g. First-order sensitivity index Total effect sensitivity index
7 Direct evaluation of sensitivity integrals requires the model executable to be available and has complexity of N samp Dimension model evaluations An analytical model representation can be created by “learning” the model (when dimension or model runtime is very large, this is the only way) We employ robust support vector regression (SVR) algorithms to learn the model The learning is based on maximizing predictive power of the analytical model representation
8 Analytical model representation where is k th input parameter sample When the number of parameters D is large and the number of samples N is comparable to or less than D, the analytical model representation may become over-smoothed This is because all parameters are considered equally important => model reduction is needed
9 Removing irrelevant parameters from the model allows us to Simplify the model Find more accurate analytical model representation and perform predictions Identify important parameters and speed-up uncertainty quantification, optimization, etc.

11 Each of the D input parameters has a prescribed distribution (uniform, Gaussian, exponential, discrete, etc.) Depending on available time, one estimates the number of times N the model executable can be run GoSUM generates exactly N (D-dimensional) points that accurately sample the joint probability distribution of input parameters using Latinized CVT (up to a few thousand samples) and DSample (any number of samples) 300 samples MC versus Latinized CVT 5,000 samples MC versus DSample
12 Supported model executable formats Windows executable MATLAB / Octave function Simulink model No executable (have model outputs) For every input sample, GoSUM evaluates the Model Executable in parallel (using a specified number of CPU cores) Model evaluations can be stopped by user
