Calculation Algorithm for Sensitivity Analysis

There are two algorithms for sensitivity calculation: rank order correlation coefficient and contribution to variance.

• Spearman is rank correlation coefficient is a non-parametric measure of statistical dependence between two variables. Perfect positive correlation coefficient equals +1.
• Contribution to Variance is calculated by squaring the rank correlation coefficients and normalizing them to 100%.

To select the sensitivity calculation method:

1. Click the Analysis tab on the Workflow bar and then click Sensitivity Analysis.
2. Click Sensitivity Calculation Algorithm.The Sensitivity Calculation dialog box opens.
3. Select the calculation method.
