norm_order

Utilize the response covariance metric for guiding adaptive refinement during UQ.

Description

The p-norm option provides more flexibility in defining a middle ground between the average and max options for scalar reduction of the estimator variance vector. As the order of the norm increases, the metric approaches the max option (the infinity norm). The default norm order is 2.
