Has anyone attempted "sensitivity analysis" on the solution of an optimization in NEURON? On a related note, has anyone computed the Hessian matrix at a solution point? Any helpful information or code related to sensitivity analysis within NEURON's MulRunFit would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Sensitivity Analysis
The praxis (principal axis) optimizer more or less gives you a continuous indication of the shape of the bowl (quadratic form) while it is carrying out its work. See
http://www.neuron.yale.edu/neuron/stati ... val_praxis
If you click on the
MulRunFitter[0]Optimize/ PrincipalAxisVariation button a window should pop up that displays these principal axes.
I believe, though if I am incorrect someone should tell me, that the principal axes and principal values are synonymous with sensitivity in the optimization context.
