Python implementations of commonly used sensitivity analysis methods. Useful in systems modeling to calculate the effects of model inputs or exogenous factors on outputs of interest.
Documentation: ReadTheDocs
Requirements: NumPy, SciPy, matplotlib, pandas, Python 3 (from SALib v1.2 onwards SALib does not officially support Python 2)
Installation: pip install SALib or python setup.py install or conda install SALib

Quick Start
from SALib.sample import saltelli
from SALib.analyze import sobol
from SALib.test_functions import Ishigami
import numpy as np
problem = {
'num_vars': 3,
'names': ['x1', 'x2', 'x3'],
'bounds': [[-np.pi, np.pi]]*3
}
# Generate samples
param_values = saltelli.sample(problem, 1000)
# Run model (example)
Y = Ishigami.evaluate(param_values)
# Perform analysis
Si = sobol.analyze(problem, Y, print_to_console=True)
# Returns a dictionary with keys 'S1', 'S1_conf', 'ST', and 'ST_conf'
# (first and total-order indices with bootstrap confidence intervals)It’s also possible to specify the parameter bounds in a file with 3 columns:
# name lower_bound upper_bound P1 0.0 1.0 P2 0.0 5.0 ...etc.
Then the problem dictionary above can be created from the read_param_file function:
from SALib.util import read_param_file
problem = read_param_file('/path/to/file.txt')
# ... same as aboveLots of other options are included for parameter files, as well as a command-line interface. See the advanced readme.
Also check out the examples for a full description of options for each method.
