Table 4:

Risk prediction and accuracy measurement of simulation. The reported values are absolute error to the target truth and ratio of standard deviation. “Interval”: absolute risk intervals defined in (4); “Risk”: averaged risk within each interval; “Cases”: predicted number of cases. “True” represents risks and number of cases from the well calibrated external model; “Proposed” stands for the proposed method; “Ad Hoc” stands for the Ad Hoc method; “ratio of sd^” stands for the ratio of standard deviation of the proposed method to that of the Ad Hoc method.
