Figure 3.

Scatter plots of the relative range of variance in a network and the pairwise agreement between hierarchies from different ranking metrics. The relative range of variance, calculated as ${\displaystyle \frac{maxS{E}^2-minS{E}^2}{maxS{E}^2}}$, indicates how much the information differs between interventions in the same networks. Networks with larger differences in variance are on the left-hand side of the plots. Spearman $\rho$ (top row) and Average Overlap (bottom row) values for the pairwise agreement between $p_{BV}$ and SUCRA_F (first column), SUCRA_F and relative treatment effect (second column), $p_{BV}$ and relative treatment effect (third column). Purple line: cubic smoothing spline with five degrees of freedom. p_BV, probability of producing the best value; SUCRA_F, surface under the cumulative ranking curve (calculated in frequentist setting).
