Risk analysis and decision analysis are increasingly used in veterinary epidemiology. Commercial software for this include ModelRisk, @Risk, and Crystal Ball. The following pieces of software are also available:

  • GeNie (Development environment for building graphical decision-theoretic models including Bayesian networks and influence diagrams) http://genie.sis.pitt.edu/
  • PopTools (Allows random sampling from various distributions, which can be useful for risk analysis and Monte Carlo simulation. Also facilitates analysis of matrix population models and simulation of stochastic processes) http://www.poptools.org/
  • Simtools (Allows random sampling from various distributions, which can be useful for risk analysis and Monte Carlo simulation. Also facilitates decision analysis and regression modelling) http://home.uchicago.edu/~rmyerson/addins.htm
