multinma (version 0.6.1)

dic: Deviance Information Criterion (DIC)

Description

Calculate the DIC for a model fitted using the nma() function.

Usage

dic(x, penalty = c("pD", "pV"), ...)

Value

A nma_dic object.

Arguments

x

A fitted model object, inheriting class stan_nma

penalty

The method for estimating the effective number of parameters, used to penalise model fit in the DIC. Either "pD" (the default), or "pV". For survival likelihoods only "pV" is currently available.

...

Other arguments (not used)

# \donttest{
# Compare DIC of FE and RE models
(smk_dic_FE <- dic(smk_fit_FE))
(smk_dic_RE <- dic(smk_fit_RE))   # substantially better fit

# Plot residual deviance contributions under RE model
