Usage Guide

Launch the MinViME application from the command line:

>minvime
* Serving Flask app "minvime.minvime" (lazy loading)
...

As shown above this command will instantiate a Flask web server and make the minvime applictation available on the default IP:Port combination.

When you navigate to that address the initial screen will prompt you for the type of business problem you are try to solve. As shown in the screenshot below.

In both of these cases the underlying analysis will be the same cost/benefit. However, in the intervention analysis MinViME will calculate the cost/benefit table from statistics you enter about the effectiveness of historical interventions. If the intervention effectiveness is something you are uncertain about, then we recommend that you perform the analysis using boundary estimates.
