Based on the theory of Hilbert spaces and orthogonal polynomials, pce allows for a unifying mathematical framework to study systems under arbitrary uncertainties of finite variance; we introduce this problem as a so-called mapping under uncertainty. For practical pce-based applications we require orthogonal polynomials relative to given probability densities, and their quadrature rules. With PolyChaos.jl we provide a Julia software package that delivers the desired functionality: given a probability density function, PolyChaos.jl offers several numerical routines to construct the respective orthogonal polynomials, and the quadrature rules together with tensorized scalar products. PolyChaos.jl is the first pce-related software written in Julia, a scientific programming language that combines the readability of scripted languages with the speed of compiled languages. We provide illustrating numerical examples that show both pce and PolyChaos.jl in action.en2405-89632020272107216IFACJuliaPolynomial chaos expansionStochastic optimal controlUncertaintiesComputer SciencesMathematicsConference Paper10.1016/j.ifacol.2020.12.552Other
