We would like to do model selection from all four combinations of degradation models and error models based on the AIC. However, fitting the DFOP model with constant variance and using default control parameters results in an error, signalling that the maximum number of 50 iterations was reached, potentially indicating overparameterisation. Nevertheless, the algorithm converges when the two-component error model is used in combination with the DFOP model. This can be explained by the fact that the smaller residues observed at later sampling times get more weight when using the two-component error model which will counteract the tendency of the algorithm to try parameter combinations unsuitable for fitting these data.</p> <div class="sourceCode" id="cb9"><pre class="downlit sourceCode r"> -<code class="sourceCode R"><span class="kw"><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/base/library.html" class="external-link">library</a></span><span class="op">(</span><span class="va"><a href="https://svn.r-project.org/R-packages/trunk/nlme/" class="external-link">nlme</a></span><span class="op">)</span> -<span class="va">f_parent_nlme_sfo_const</span> <span class="op"><-</span> <span class="fu"><a href="https://rdrr.io/pkg/nlme/man/nlme.html" class="external-link">nlme</a></span><span class="op">(</span><span class="va">f_parent_mkin_const</span><span class="op">[</span><span class="st">"SFO"</span>, <span class="op">]</span><span class="op">)</span> -<span class="co"># f_parent_nlme_dfop_const <- nlme(f_parent_mkin_const["DFOP", ])</span> -<span class="va">f_parent_nlme_sfo_tc</span> <span class="op"><-</span> <span class="fu"><a href="https://rdrr.io/pkg/nlme/man/nlme.html" class="external-link">nlme</a></span><span class="op">(</span><span class="va">f_parent_mkin_tc</span><span class="op">[</span><span class="st">"SFO"</span>, <span class="op">]</span><span class="op">)</span> -<span class="va">f_parent_nlme_dfop_tc</span> <span class="op"><-</span> <span class="fu"><a href="https://rdrr.io/pkg/nlme/man/nlme.html" class="external-link">nlme</a></span><span class="op">(</span><span class="va">f_parent_mkin_tc</span><span class="op">[</span><span class="st">"DFOP"</span>, <span class="op">]</span><span class="op">)</span></code></pre></div> +<code class="sourceCode R"><span><span class="kw"><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/base/library.html" class="external-link">library</a></span><span class="op">(</span><span class="va"><a href="https://svn.r-project.org/R-packages/trunk/nlme/" class="external-link">nlme</a></span><span class="op">)</span></span> +<span><span class="va">f_parent_nlme_sfo_const</span> <span class="op"><-</span> <span class="fu"><a href="https://rdrr.io/pkg/nlme/man/nlme.html" class="external-link">nlme</a></span><span class="op">(</span><span class="va">f_parent_mkin_const</span><span class="op">[</span><span class="st">"SFO"</span>, <span class="op">]</span><span class="op">)</span></span> +<span><span class="co"># f_parent_nlme_dfop_const <- nlme(f_parent_mkin_const["DFOP", ])</span></span> +<span><span class="va">f_parent_nlme_sfo_tc</span> <span class="op"><-</span> <span class="fu"><a href="https://rdrr.io/pkg/nlme/man/nlme.html" class="external-link">nlme</a></span><span class="op">(</span><span class="va">f_parent_mkin_tc</span><span class="op">[</span><span class="st">"SFO"</span>, <span class="op">]</span><span class="op">)</span></span> +<span><span class="va">f_parent_nlme_dfop_tc</span> <span class="op"><-</span> <span class="fu"><a href="https://rdrr.io/pkg/nlme/man/nlme.html" class="external-link">nlme</a></span><span class="op">(</span><span class="va">f_parent_mkin_tc</span><span class="op">[</span><span class="st">"DFOP"</span>, <span class="op">]</span><span class="op">)</span></span></code></pre></div> <p>Note that a certain degree of overparameterisation is also indicated by a warning obtained when fitting DFOP with the two-component error model (‘false convergence’ in the ‘LME step’ in iteration 3).

class="anchor" aria-label="anchor" href="#conclusion"></a> +</h2> +<p>A more detailed analysis of the dimethenamid dataset confirmed that the DFOP model provides the most appropriate description of the decline of the parent compound in these data. On the other hand, closer inspection of the results revealed that the variability of the k2 parameter across the population of soils is ill-defined. This coincides with the observation that this parameter cannot robustly be quantified for some of the soils.</p> +<p>Regarding the regulatory use of these data, it is claimed that an improved characterisation of the mean parameter values across the population is obtained using the nonlinear mixed-effects models presented here. However, attempts to quantify the variability of the slower rate constant of the biphasic decline of dimethenamid indicate that the data are not sufficient to characterise this variability to a satisfactory precision.</p> +</div> +<div class="section level2"> +<h2 id="session-info">Session Info<a class="anchor" aria-label="anchor" href="#session-info"></a> +</h2> +<div class="sourceCode" id="cb32"><pre class="downlit sourceCode r"> +<code class="sourceCode R"><span><span class="fu"><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/utils/sessionInfo.html" class="external-link">sessionInfo</a></span><span class="op">(</span><span class="op">)</span></span></code></pre></div> +<pre><code>R version 4.2.1 (2022-06-23) +Platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (64-bit) +Running under: Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye) + +Matrix products: default +BLAS: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/openblas-serial/libblas.so.3 +LAPACK: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/openblas-serial/libopenblas-r0.3.13.so + +locale: + [1] LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_NUMERIC=C + [3] LC_TIME=C LC_COLLATE=de_DE.UTF-8 + [5] LC_MONETARY=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES=de_DE.UTF-8 + [7] LC_PAPER=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_NAME=C + [9] LC_ADDRESS=C LC_TELEPHONE=C +[11] LC_MEASUREMENT=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=C + +attached base packages: +[1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base + +other attached packages: +[1] nlme_3.1-158 mkin_1.1.2 knitr_1.39 + +loaded via a namespace (and not attached): + [1] deSolve_1.33 zoo_1.8-10 tidyselect_1.1.2 xfun_0.31 + [5] bslib_0.4.0 purrr_0.3.4 lattice_0.20-45 colorspace_2.0-3 + [9] vctrs_0.4.1 generics_0.1.3 htmltools_0.5.3 yaml_2.3.5 +[13] utf8_1.2.2 rlang_1.0.4 pkgdown_2.0.6 saemix_3.1 +[17] jquerylib_0.1.4 pillar_1.8.0 glue_1.6.2 DBI_1.1.3 +[21] lifecycle_1.0.1 stringr_1.4.0 munsell_0.5.0 gtable_0.3.0 +[25] ragg_1.2.2 memoise_2.0.1 evaluate_0.15 npde_3.2 +[29] fastmap_1.1.0 lmtest_0.9-40 parallel_4.2.1 fansi_1.0.3 +[33] highr_0.9 KernSmooth_2.23-20 scales_1.2.0 cachem_1.0.6 +[37] desc_1.4.1 jsonlite_1.8.0 systemfonts_1.0.4 fs_1.5.2 +[41] textshaping_0.3.6 gridExtra_2.3 ggplot2_3.3.6 digest_0.6.29 +[45] stringi_1.7.8 dplyr_1.0.9 grid_4.2.1 rprojroot_2.0.3 +[49] cli_3.3.0 tools_4.2.1 magrittr_2.0.3 sass_0.4.2 +[53] tibble_3.1.8 pkgconfig_2.0.3 assertthat_0.2.1 rmarkdown_2.14.3 +[57] mclust_5.4.10 R6_2.5.1 compiler_4.2.1 </code></pre> </div> <div class="section level2"> <h2 id="references">References<a class="anchor" aria-label="anchor" href="#references"></a> @@ -501,7 +511,7 @@ f_parent_nlmixr_saem_dfop_tc_10k$nm 10 Inf</code></pre> <div class="pkgdown"> <p></p> -<p>Site built with <a href="https://pkgdown.r-lib.org/" class="external-link">pkgdown</a> 2.0.2.</p> +<p>Site built with <a href="https://pkgdown.r-lib.org/" class="external-link">pkgdown</a> 2.0.6.</p> </div> </footer> |
