The autogeneration of C code was inspired by the <a href="https://github.com/karlines/ccSolve"><code>ccSolve</code></a> package.

This has the side effect that no constraints are needed in the optimisation. Thanks to René Lehmann for the nice cooperation on this, especially the isometric logration transformation that is now used for the formation fractions.</li> <li>A side effect of this is that when parameter estimates are backtransformed to match the model definition, confidence intervals calculated from standard errors are also backtransformed to the correct scale, and will not include meaningless values like negative rate constants or formation fractions adding up to more than 1, which can not occur in a single experiment with a single defined radiolabel position.</li> <li>The usual one-sided t-test for significant difference from zero is nevertheless shown based on estimators for the untransformed parameters.</li> <li>Summary and plotting functions. The <code>summary</code> of an <code>mkinfit</code> object is in fact a full report that should give enough information to be able to approximately reproduce the fit with other tools.</li> <li>The chi-squared error level as defined in the FOCUS kinetics guidance (see below) is calculated for each observed variable.</li> <li>Iteratively reweighted least squares fitting is implemented in a similar way as in KinGUII and CAKE (see below).

CAKE is available for download from the <a href="http://projects.tessella.com/cake">CAKE website</a>, where you can also find a zip archive of the R scripts derived from <code>mkin</code>, published under the GPL license.</p> |
