hierarchical.plot plots the results from nmadt.hierarchical and nmadt.hierarchical.MNAR.Graphics representation includes density plots, forest plots, SROC curves, and contour plots of the results.

1 2	hierarchical.plot(nstu, K, data, testname, output, directory, typeofplot = c("density", "forest", "sroc", "contour"), n.chains = 3)

`nstu`	an integer indicating the number of studies included in the dataset.
`K`	an integer indicating the number of candiate test in the dataset.
`data`	a list conating the input dataset to be used for meta-analysis.
`testname`	a string vector of the names of the candidate tests in the dataset in the same order as presetned in the dataset.
`output`	a list object obtained by function `nmadt.hierarchical` and `nmadt.hierarchical.MNAR`.
`directory`	a string specifying the designated directory to save the plots.
`typeofplot`	a string vector containing the types of plot to be generated including "density", "forest","sroc", and "contour".
`n.chains`	a number indicating number of MCMC chains generated using `nmadt.hierarchical` and `nmadt.hierarchical.MNAR`. The default is 3.
