Tiivistelmä	Agent-based sensitivity analysis (ABSA) applies sensitivity analysis techniques to agent-based models (ABMs) to determine which input parameters most strongly influence emergent outputs. Because ABMs are stochastic and nonlinear, standard analytical derivatives are unavailable; ABSA uses designed simulation experiments — screening methods, variance-based indices, or regression-based surrogates — to rank parameter importance and guide model calibration and validation.	Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) is a stratified space-filling design for computer experiments, introduced by McKay, Beckman, and Conover in 1979. It divides each input variable's range into equally probable strata and draws exactly one sample per stratum, ensuring that the full input space is covered with far fewer model evaluations than standard Monte Carlo simulation requires. It is routinely paired with global sensitivity analysis — particularly Sobol indices — to quantify how much each input drives output variability.
