Description
Active Subspaces: Emerging Ideas for Dimension Reduction in Parameter Studies by Paul G. Constantine. Computer simulations are used to study relationships between model input parameters and outputs, but thorough parameter studies can be challenging when the simulation is expensive and has multiple inputs. To overcome this, engineers use dimension reduction tools like active subspaces to identify important directions in the parameter space. This book describes techniques for discovering a model's active subspace and proposes methods for exploiting the reduced dimension. Readers will find new ideas for dimension reduction, easy-to-implement algorithms, and examples of active subspaces in action. The book is intended for researchers and graduate students in computational science, applied mathematics, statistics, and engineering. With 110 pages of practical information, this book provides a valuable resource for those looking to improve their parameter study capabilities. Suitable for professionals and students working in these fields, Active Subspaces offers a comprehensive introduction to emerging dimension reduction tools and techniques.
