Re: Tornado Sensitivity

Thanks for the help. Yes I had assumed that Genie had checked for normalised CPT values.

Tornado Sensitivity

I am interested in conducting some detailed analysis using parameterisation sensitivity analysis data and consequently I have implemented (via a friendly coder) a 'brute force' approach using the SMILE library, run this on my model and compared it to tornado outputs. While the code produces the same...

Re: Influence Diagrams - Value of Information & Tornado

Thank you again for your response. This would seem to be quite a problem for me. Could you clarify whether any theoretical problems remain if I convert my decision node to a chance node?

Re: Influence Diagrams - Value of Information & Tornado

Marek, I have double checked my manual calculations for VoI for External Interest and Operational Forces and recorded the following results: 1. External interests: Calculated VoI: 0.03114655; GeNIe VoI: 0.3118462. Note that I had found a small error. 2. Operational Forces: Calculated VoI: 0.03937436...

Re: Influence Diagrams - Value of Information & Tornado

Marek, Having taken your advice on board regarding deterministic nodes. I have set the model up with input node states set to equal probability and have manually calculated VOI for all nodes. While most of my input nodes produce a very low or 0 VoI, many intermediate chance nodes have non-0 values. ...

Re: Influence Diagrams - Value of Information & Tornado

Thanks Marek, Some points in reply: 1. Deterministic nodes were deliberate as they set the strategic situation surrounding a particular decision. My model seeks to represent a particular strategic situation for which a decision is required and possibly naively I opted for deterministic nodes bundled...

Influence Diagrams - Value of Information & Tornado

I have been developing an extensive international relations focused Influence Diagram. I have at least three levels of utility nodes (including MAUT nodes) as model outputs interfacing with an extensive Bayesian network. I have two questions. 1. Value of Information. I would like to calculate value ...
