Analytical Sensitivity Analysis
March 21st, 2009 by Dan HughesI have started working on a toy model and plan to include analytical sensitivity analysis as part of the methods. These notes, and an associated extended discussion that I have up-loaded, serve as a short introduction to the subject.

Summary
These notes introduce a few of the ideas and concepts associated with sensitivity analysis for algebraic and ordinary differential equations. By sensitivity I mean what are the effects of changes in the numerical values of the parameters in a system of equations relative to a response function of interest. The response function can take any mathematical form, but I will focus on the values of the dependent variables of the equation system.
