Dimensions of Analysis
SISEPUEDE facilitates large-scale computational experiments by organizing data around Dimensions of Analysis. These dimensions of analysis–including design_id, future_id, strategy_id, and time_series_id (under development)– are based on the XLRM logical framework (see Lempert, Popper, and Bankes (2003)). The framework organizes robust, scenario-based modeling excercises into the following components:
X Exogenous uncertertainties
L Levers (controls and strategies)
R Relationships (including models)
M Metrics
In SISEPUEDE, Strategies (Ls) are used to denote different collections of levers that can be applied to a baseline, and strategies are indexed by strategy_id. A strategy can represent any combination of levers, including no levers (baseline, which is required to specify); a single lever; or a collection of levers. Futures represent different plausible states of the future–including both exogenous uncertainties (Xs) and the ability of levers to acheieve expected effects (LEs)– and are indexed by dimension future_id. Futures are explored over using Latin Hybercube (LHC) samples, which ensure that the uncertainty space is maximally explored given some number of futures (defined at runtime or in configuration files).
SISPEUEDE furthermore allows users to combine Xs and different characterizations of LEs through different Experimental Designs, which are identified using the design_id. All inputs for variables, strategies and futures (sampling ranges) are managed using templates and attribute tables, each of which are discussed below.

Strategies, indexed by strategy_id, combine transformations to generate whole-sector and economy-wide transformations.

Using the input data system, the SamplingUnits is instantiated for each variable or collection of variables (specified as a variable trajectory group) and infers whether or not a variable is an X or an L–any variable that changes with strategies is determined to be an L–then determines the implicit lever effect for each strategy since effects might vary by strategy.
Designs and Lever Effects
The Design dimension of analyais, which is indexed by design_id, is used to manage computational experiments and control two uncertainties: exogenous uncertainties, characterized by X in the XLRM matrix, and lever effect uncertainties, which represent undertainties in the ability to acheieve lever or strategy specifications. As described above in the Strategy section, the implicit lever effect, or lever delta, is inferred by the SamplingUnit class (sampling_units.py). The design_id allows the user to sample arund this effect and consider scenarios where strategic goals or expectations are not met or are exceeded. The specification of uncertainty designs are controled in the design_id attribute table, located at ../../sisepuede/attributes/attribute_dim_design_id.csv.

A brief description of input fields is included below. Note that fields that begin with linear_transform_ld_ give parameter values for the linear transformation of LHC samples, which are then applied as scalars to LEs. Mathematically, suppose an LHC sample \(x\) is such that \(x \sim U(0, 1)\). Then the transformation applied to generate scalars for lever effects (LEs) is \(d(x) = \max\{\min\{mx + b, a_1\}, a_0\}\).

Binary (1 or 0). A 1 indicates that this design will quantify uncertainty around the lever deltas, and a 0 will leave the lever delta fixed (for each strategy). |
|
Binary (1 or 0). A 1 indicates that this design will quantify uncertainty around incertidumbres (parameters of type incertidumbre), and a 0 will only assess fixed trajectories (no variation under futures). |
|
Real number, gives the value of \(m\) in \(d(x)\). |
|
Real number, gives the value of \(b\) in \(d(x)\). |
|
Real number, gives the value of \(a_0\) in \(d(x)\). |
|
Real number, gives the value of \(a_1\) in \(d(x)\). |
|
The name of the design. |
|
Binary (1 or 0). A 1 indicates that this design will be included in the analysis, while a 0 indicates it will not be included. |
