+<p>The purpose of this document is to demonstrate how nonlinear
+hierarchical models (NLHM) based on the parent degradation models SFO,
+FOMC, DFOP and HS can be fitted with the mkin package.</p>
+<p>It was assembled in the course of work package 1.1 of Project Number
+173340 (Application of nonlinear hierarchical models to the kinetic
+evaluation of chemical degradation data) of the German Environment
+Agency carried out in 2022 and 2023.</p>
+<p>The mkin package is used in version 1.2.3. It contains the test data
+and the functions used in the evaluations. The <code>saemix</code>
+package is used as a backend for fitting the NLHM, but is also loaded to
+make the convergence plot function available.</p>
+<p>This document is processed with the <code>knitr</code> package, which
+also provides the <code>kable</code> function that is used to improve
+the display of tabular data in R markdown documents. For parallel
+processing, the <code>parallel</code> package is used.</p>

+<p>The test data are available in the mkin package as an object of class
+<code>mkindsg</code> (mkin dataset group) under the identifier
+<code>dimethenamid_2018</code>. The following preprocessing steps are
+still necessary:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>The data available for the enantiomer dimethenamid-P (DMTAP) are
+renamed to have the same substance name as the data for the racemic
+mixture dimethenamid (DMTA). The reason for this is that no difference
+between their degradation behaviour was identified in the EU risk
+assessment.</li>
+<li>The data for transformation products and unnecessary columns are
+discarded</li>
+<li>The observation times of each dataset are multiplied with the
+corresponding normalisation factor also available in the dataset, in
+order to make it possible to describe all datasets with a single set of
+parameters that are independent of temperature</li>
+<li>Finally, datasets observed in the same soil (<code>Elliot 1</code>
+and <code>Elliot 2</code>) are combined, resulting in dimethenamid
+(DMTA) data from six soils.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>The following commented R code performs this preprocessing.</p>

+<p>The following code fits eight versions of hierarchical models to the
+data, using SFO, FOMC, DFOP and HS for the parent compound, and using
+either constant variance or two-component error for the error model. The
+default parameter distribution model in mkin allows for variation of all
+degradation parameters across the assumed population of soils. In other
+words, each degradation parameter is associated with a random effect as
+a first step. The <code>mhmkin</code> function makes it possible to fit
+all eight versions in parallel (given a sufficient number of computing
+cores being available) to save execution time.</p>
+<p>Convergence plots and summaries for these fits are shown in the
+appendix.</p>

+was selected for further refinements of the fits with the aim to make

+</h2>
+<p>Fitting the four parent degradation models SFO, FOMC, DFOP and HS as
+part of hierarchical model fits with two different error models and
+normal distributions of the transformed degradation parameters works
+without technical problems. The biphasic models DFOP and HS gave the
+best fit to the data, but the default parameter distribution model was
+not fully identifiable. Removing the random effect for the second
+kinetic rate constant of the DFOP model resulted in a reduced model that
+was fully identifiable and showed the lowest values for the model
+selection criteria AIC and BIC. The reliability of the identification of
+all model parameters was confirmed using multiple starting values.</p>
