A Bayesian approach to probabilistic sensitivity analysis in structured benefit-risk assessment.
Quantitative decision models such as multiple criteria decision analysis (MCDA) can be used in benefit-risk assessment to formalize trade-offs between benefits and risks, providing transparency to the assessment process. There is however no well-established method for propagating uncertainty of treatment effects data through such models to provide a sense of the variability of the benefit-risk ...
متن کاملA Bayesian approach to sensitivity analysis.
Sensitivity analysis has traditionally been applied to decision models to quantify the stability of a preferred alternative to parametric variation. In the health literature, sensitivity measures have traditionally been based upon distance metrics, payoff variations, and probability measures. We advocate a new approach based on information value and argue that such an approach is better suited ...
متن کاملProbabilistic sensitivity analysis: be a Bayesian.
OBJECTIVE To give guidance in defining probability distributions for model inputs in probabilistic sensitivity analysis (PSA) from a full Bayesian perspective. METHODS A common approach to defining probability distributions for model inputs in PSA on the basis of input-related data is to use the likelihood of the data on an appropriate scale as the foundation for the distribution around the i...
متن کاملAn Approach to Bayesian Sensitivity Analysis
This paper describes an approach to Bayesian sensitivity analysis that uses an innuence statistic and an outlier statistic to assess the sensitivity of a model to perturbations. The basic outlier statistic is a Bayes factor, while the innuence statistic depends strongly on the purpose of the analysis. The task of innuence analysis is aided by having an interpretable innuence statistic. Two alte...
متن کاملAirport risk assessment: a probabilistic approach
Risk reduction is one of the key objectives pursued by transport safety policies. Particularly, the formulation and implementation of transport safety policies needs the systematic assessment of the risks, the specification of residual risk targets and the monitoring of progresses towards those ones. Risk and safety have always been considered critical in civil aviation. The purpose of this pap...
