otAK is a module of OpenTURNS implementing some methods for combining Kriging and reliability methods. 
The different methods are: AK-MCS for Monte-Carlo Simulation, AK-IS for Importance Sampling and AK-SS 
for Subset Simulation. The AK methods are built on top of OpenTURNS and consist in training a Kriging metamodel
to avoid expensive simulations. 


AK methods involve dedicated infill criterion to refine the Kriging models only in
the area that are relevant to the reliability problem (in the vicinity of limit state and on area with
high probabilistic content).
