ICI Local Effects Elicitor

Menu path: Hellixia > ICI Local Effects Elicitor

What it does

Elicits independent local effects for ICI-style causal models.

Treat Hellixia output as a structured starting point for analyst review, expert refinement, learning, inference, or communication. Generated causal directions and quantification should be checked before they are used operationally.

When to use it

  • Noisy-OR style quantification
  • causal effect elicitation
  • parameter review

Inputs

  • Selected ICI relationships
  • node states
  • optional General Context

Outputs

  • Independent local effect estimates
  • reviewable parameter notes

Step-by-Step Workflow

  1. Prepare the network, source material, selected nodes, selected arcs, or Knowledge Files required by the function.
  2. Confirm that Hellixia provider settings and model access are configured.
  3. Open Hellixia > ICI Local Effects Elicitor.
  4. Review the available options and add General Context when the model needs domain-specific guidance.
  5. Run the function and inspect the generated graph, comments, priors, embeddings, translations, or images.
  6. Edit the output in BayesiaLab before using it for analysis, publication, or decision support.

Review Guidance

Check whether the generated labels, relationships, comments, classes, probabilities, or causal effects match the source material and expert understanding. For causal outputs, verify that the proposed direction and mechanism are plausible and that no important confounder or alternative explanation has been hidden by the generated structure.
