Abstract: The sensitivity analysis plays a very important role in the construct of a network and its application. There has been two statistical definitions based on expectation and variance respectively. This paper compares the two definitions and tries to find which definition is more suitable to define the sensitivity of one network. According to the immediate aspect and simulation experiments, mathematical expectation fits the definition more accurately.
