Stochastic Search Inconsistency Factor Selection

Evaluating the consistency assumption of Network Meta-Analysis both globally and locally in the Bayesian framework. Inconsistencies are located by applying Bayesian variable selection to the inconsistency factors. The implementation of the method is described by Seitidis et al. (2023) .

ssifs

The goal of ssifs is to test the consistency assumption of network meta-analysis (NMA) in the Bayesian framework both globally and locally.
