PRISM: PROGRAMMABLE INTERFACE FOR STATISTICAL & SIMULATION MODELS
ABOUT:
PRSIM is a platform that makes decision-analytics and clinical prediction models accessible on the cloud. PRISM enables end-users to interact with the model they are interested in, without worrying about having the required hardware resources, or setting up complex code on their computer.
In its current implementation, PRISM can host models created in R, and can be accessed through Microsoft Excel and R.
The Model Repository on Peer Models Network contains an index of currently available models.
Models hosted on PRISM can be accessed through Microsoft Excel, R, and a publicly available web API. The Model Repository contains links to MACRO-enalbed Excel templates for each model, that allow the end user to run the model on the cloud. This is specially useful when the model require complex or demanding hardware/software set up.
Additionally, we provide the R package peermodels which provides standardized and user-friendly functions to work with PRISM models.
Developers seeking to integrate PRISM models with other pieces of software (EMR systems, smartphone apps, web apps) can contact us for more information.
We are happy to help you host your decision analytics or clinical prediction model on the cloud. At present, you can sumbit your models to PRISM free of charge and at little incremental effort on your part. In its current implementation, PRISM is able to host models developed in R. If you have an R model you'd like to host on PRISM, please contact us.
