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 ...
