Description
Propagation of Uncertainty.
Description
Propagation of uncertainty using higher-order Taylor expansion and Monte Carlo simulation. Calculations of propagated uncertainties are based on matrix calculus including covariance structure according to Arras 1998 <doi:10.3929/ethz-a-010113668> (first order), Wang & Iyer 2005 <doi:10.1088/0026-1394/42/5/011> (second order) and BIPM Supplement 1 (Monte Carlo) <doi:10.59161/JCGM101-2008>.

propagate: Propagation of uncertainty using higher-order Taylor expansion and Monte Carlo simulation (R-package)
propagate is an R package that can conduct uncertainty propagation based on first- and second-order Taylor expansion as well as Monte Carlo simulation. It also houses functionality to estimate confidence and prediction intervals for nonlinear models, create large correlation matrices and automatic distribution fitting.
