PCE_ODE_HERMITE, a MATLAB library which defines and solves a time-dependent scalar exponential decay ODE with uncertain decay coefficient, using a polynomial chaos expansion, in terms of Hermite polynomials.
The deterministic equation is
du/dt = - alpha * u,
u(0) = u0
In the stochastic version, it is assumed that the decay coefficient
ALPHA is a Gaussian random variable with mean value ALPHA_MU and variance
ALPHA_SIGMA^2.
The exact expected value of the stochastic equation is known to be
u(t) = u0 * exp ( t^2/2)
This should be matched by the first component of the polynomial chaos
expansion.

PCE_ODE_HERMITE is available in a C version and a C++ version and a FORTRAN90 version and a MATLAB version.
