Cost-effectiveness model: Converting different rates on different rates into one probability?

Is there a deep reason for using the squared modulus of the wave function as the probability density of the existence of the particle?

I think we were all surprised at the first time we got to know quantum mechanics that the squared modulus of the wave function is the probability density of the existence of the particle? The role...

How to plot the probability paper of Gumbel distribution using R programing?

In R-studio, there are many commands of Gumbel package. Arguments are also different. I`m asking about the alpha parameter of the Copula which must be greater than 1. If this is the one used to...

Multinomial probabilities and confidence intervals - obtaining the CI of the reference category?

Hi, Some background to my question: I have fitted 1st order multinomial Markov models with covariates. Since all probabiilties (for each row of the transition matrix) sum to 1, I estimate only...

Books on Monte Carlo methods?

Hi everyone. I took a basic course on Markov Chains, and know a little about Monte Carlo Stimulations and Methods. But I never got to the part of spreadsheets. If anyone can help direct me to a...

PV system design. 3d modelling and Analysis?

I have been looking for a good cost-effective tool for 3D modelling a glass-glass solar module system. I was initially considering Skelion as a tool but it does not look very promising, a bit...

How can I multiply values with standard distribution and with triangular distribution?

I am calculating emissions considering the uncertainty of the data to do Monte Carlo simulation. Some variables such as yields have normal, lognormal or even uniform distributions. These must be...

Matrix based scientific data analysis: extrapolating to matrices of sets?

Data sets, when structured, can be put in vector form (v(1)...v(n)), adding time dependency it's v(i, t) for i=1...n and t=1...T. Then we have a matrix of terms v(i, j)... Matrices are important,...

How to prove possibility/impossibility to analytically solve the functional equation f(a ln x^2)/f(x)=x/2a; and how to find out the solution?

This is my very first encounter with functional equation of this kind, and methods of series solution and differential equations are of not much help. The solution to this problem, or at least the...

Maybe this will help you:

Here's one approach given the data you have. Suppose X is the random variable for the time to the next occurrence. For study A you have P(X

Andrew Paul McKenzie Pegman

Yes, I agree with Naresh :)

Sy Syeda

Thanks you everyone for the response.

@ Naresh: so if I weight it on the basis of sample size to the number of population (5 studies together), will it be correct?

@Syeda: yes, that would work. I.e., weighting by sample size in each study and normalizing so that the weights add up to one.

The recurrence risk increases with time. So I cannot use normal distribution. I will be using Gompertz distribution. so I believe each rate will have different shape/density function. Still, I can combine assuming the same calculation as above. I really look forward for your inputs. Thanks again!!!
