# Sensitivity Computation

Sensitivity matrix computation utilities for parameter estimation and consider covariance analysis.

## Overview

Brahe provides both analytical and numerical sensitivity computation through a unified interface. Sensitivity matrices describe how a function's output changes with respect to consider parameters ($\partial f/\partial p$), which is essential for orbit determination with consider parameters and covariance analysis.
