BCEA (version 2.1-0)

multi.evppi: multi.evppi

Description

Performs calculations for multiparameter EVPPI

Usage

multi.evppi(regr.mod, inputs, he, mcsim = 1)

Arguments

regr.mod
A string specifying the form of the non parametric regression in terms of the parameters involved. "Main" effects are constructed with the format s(par), where par is one of the parameters for the model being considered. Also, it is possible to consider
inputs
A matrix containing the simulations for all the relevant parameters. It can be constructed by calling the function CreateInputs
he
A bcea object including the health economic model
mcsim
The number of Monte Carlo simulations to be performed in order to compute an estimation of the standard error and the bias of the approximation to the EVPPI, due to the use of the non-parametric GAM regression
