The Dakota toolkit provides a flexible, extensible interface between
analysis codes and iteration methods. Dakota contains algorithms for
optimization with gradient and nongradient-based methods; uncertainty
-quantification with sampling, reliability, stochastic expansion, and
-epistemic methods; parameter estimation with nonlinear least squares
-methods; and sensitivity/variance analysis with design of experiments
-and parameter study capabilities. These capabilities may be used on
-their own or as components within advanced strategies such as
-surrogate-based optimization, mixed integer nonlinear programming, or
-optimization under uncertainty.
