relative error, expressed as a fraction.</p></dd> <dt>n.optim</dt><dd><p>The number of
optimised parameters attributed to the data series.</p></dd> <dt>df</dt><dd><p>The number of
remaining degrees of freedom for the chi2 error level calculations.  Note
that mean values are used for the chi2 statistic and therefore every time
point with observed values in the series only counts one time.</p></dd> The
dataframe has one row for the total dataset and one further row for each
observed state variable in the model.
