# central

Output central moments and include them within the set of final statistics.

Specification

- Alias: None

- Arguments: None

Description

Output central moments (mean, variance, 3rd central, and 4th central) and include the first two within the set of final statistics to be used at a higher level (e.g., optimization under uncertainty, mixed aleatory-epistemic UQ). This inclusion of moment results affects the primary and/or secondary response mappings in a nested model specificaton.

Examples

The following method specification overrides the default to print `central` moments and include them in the set of final statistics.

      sampling
        samples = 50 seed = 1234
        response_levels = 3.6e+11 1.2e+05 3.5e+05
