Predictive modelling and uncertainty quantification (UQ) suite. Use requires provision of target function which takes inputs and returns quantity of interest. In addition, probability distributions (from scipy.stats) for input variables should be specified if using sampling, along with optional input/output conversion methods (e.g bounded to unbounded range) for more performant machine learning surrogates.

To install run the following in the same directory as setup.py (can drop the --user flag if root):
pip3 install --user .
