Performance of Skart: A Skewness- and Autoregression-Adjusted Batch Means Procedure for Simulation Analysis

Tafazzoli, A., Wilson, J. R., Lada, E. K., & Steiger, N. M. (2010, September 1). INFORMS Journal on Computing.

By: A. Tafazzoli*, J. Wilson n, E. Lada* & N. Steiger*

author keywords: simulation; statistical analysis; steady-state analysis; method of batch means; Cornish-Fisher expansion; autoregressive representation
topics (OpenAlex): Simulation Techniques and Applications; Advanced Statistical Process Monitoring; Forecasting Techniques and Applications
TL;DR: In an experimental performance evaluation of Skart, an automated sequential batch means procedure for constructing an asymptotically valid confidence interval (CI) on the steady-state mean of a simulation output process, Skart exhibited competitive sampling efficiency and closer conformance to the given CI coverage probabilities than the other procedures.

2009 article

Probabilistic cost-effectiveness comparison of screening strategies for colorectal cancer

Tafazzoli, A., Roberts, S., Klein, R., Ness, R., & Dittus, R. (2009, March 1). ACM Transactions on Modeling and Computer Simulation.

By: A. Tafazzoli n, S. Roberts n, R. Klein *, R. Ness * & R. Dittus*

author keywords: Cost-effectiveness analysis; probabilistic sensitivity analysis; net benefit analysis; acceptability curves; colorectal cancer screening strategies; medical decision making
topics (OpenAlex): Colorectal Cancer Screening and Detection; Genetic factors in colorectal cancer; Health Systems, Economic Evaluations, Quality of Life
TL;DR: Methodologically, this work demonstrates how variability from the natural variation in the development, screening, and treatment of a disease can be combined with the variation in parameter uncertainty to produce a probabilistic cost-effectiveness analysis of decision alternatives.
