Using trajectory analysis to test and illustrate microsimulation outcomes [PDF]
, 2019 We propose a new data-driven way of testing and visualizing dynamic microsimulation outcome data. The proposed statistical methodology is based on trajectory analysis (Nagin, 1999), which can be used to identify several sub-populations from a population ...

Microsimulation Modeling in Oncology
JCO Clinical Cancer Informatics, 2018 Purpose Microsimulation is a modeling technique that uses a sample size of individual units (microunits), each with a unique set of attributes, and allows for the simulation of downstream events on the basis of predefined states and transition probabilities between those states over time.

Microsimulation and Policy Analysis [PDF]
, 2015 We provide an overview of microsimulation approaches for assessing the effects of policy on income distribution. We focus on the role of tax-benefit policies and review the concept of microsimulation and how it contributes to the analysis of income distribution in general and policy evaluation in particular.

Microsimulation for demography
Australian Population Studies, 2017 Background: Microsimulation consists of a set of techniques for estimating characteristics and modelling change in populations of individuals. Aims: To demonstrate how microsimulation can be used by demographers who want to undertake population estimates and projections.

Universal Basic Income, Taxes, and the Poor
LSE Public Policy Review, 2022 A Universal Basic Income (UBI) is often seen as an attractive policy option to replace existing targeted transfer and subsidy programs. However, in a budget-neutral switch to a UBI there is a trade-off between the generosity of the universal transfer ...

Microsimulation of the Firm and the Economy [PDF]
Simulation & Gaming, 1997 The article presents a microsimulation model of firm behavior in an economy-wide setting. A combination of microsimulation and general equilibrium modelling approaches is proposed as an alternative research method to incorporate typical industrial organization issues into economy-wide modelling. The article centers around an application that uses Dutch

Bayesian Calibration of Microsimulation Models [PDF]
Journal of the American Statistical Association, 2009 Microsimulation models that describe disease processes synthesize information from multiple sources and can be used to estimate the effects of screening and treatment on cancer incidence and mortality at a population level. These models are characterized by simulation of individual event histories for an idealized population of interest ...

Evaluating risk factor assumptions: a simulation-based approach
BMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making, 2011 Background Microsimulation models are an important tool for estimating the comparative effectiveness of interventions through prediction of individual-level disease outcomes for a hypothetical population.

The value of timely treatment with anti‐amyloid therapy for Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
Alzheimers DementAbstract INTRODUCTION Anti‐amyloid therapies can slow Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression; diagnostic and treatment delays might reduce their value. METHODS Using dynamic microsimulation, we estimated the gross societal value of anti‐amyloid treatment for Americans with early symptomatic AD. A treatment scenario slowed the rate of clinical progression
