About pksensi package

Description

Applying a global sensitivity analysis approach to reduce parameter dimensionality in physiologically based kinetic modeling and evaluate the robustness of the algorithm under the given sampling number.

Details

The "extended Fourier amplitude sensitivity testing (eFAST)", a variance-based sensitivity analysis method is used to estimate the parameter impact on model output (Saltelli et al. 1999). The eFAST is the effective algorithm to determine the influential parameter in physiologically-based pharmacokinetic model calibration (Hsieh et al. 2018). The eFAST algorithm is sourced from sensitivity package but implemented the random-phase shift to evaluating the robustness of sensitivity measurement under the given sample size.
