Uncertainty Quantification

A number without an uncertainty is a guess in a lab coat. Kronos quantifies its own.

Process & MethodologyUpdated 2026-08-11

Kronos propagates input uncertainties through its models with Monte-Carlo sampling, producing distributions and feasibility fractions rather than single deterministic values. Sensitivity (Sobol) and tornado analyses rank which assumptions the result actually depends on.

Honest error barsReporting a feasibility fraction — the share of sampled cases that still close — is more honest than a single point, and it is deposited alongside the point estimate.

Common questions

What is uncertainty quantification?

Carrying the uncertainty in inputs and models through to the results, so a figure comes with a credible range rather than false precision.

Why does it matter for credibility?

Because honest ranges and named assumptions are more trustworthy than a single confident number — consistent with Kronos's honesty framework.
