Intervention Modeling
It sets the network variables to specific levels, to track the changes in the target variable in the network. For instance: If we fix the value of the variable ‘Number of Beneficiaries availed Janani Suraksha Yojana_1338’ to ‘high’, then we would study the impact of this intervention on the target variable i.e., “Maternal Deaths” of the network across varieties of Taluks in Karnataka.
