Note that the convergence of the nlme fits depends on the quality of the data. Convergence is better for simple models and data for many groups (e.g. soils). The saem method uses the <code>saemix</code> package as a backend. Analytical solutions suitable for use with this package have been implemented for parent only models and the most important models including one metabolite (SFO-SFO and DFOP-SFO). Fitting other models with <code>saem.mmkin</code>, while it makes use of the compiled ODE models that mkin provides, has longer run times (at least six minutes on my system).</li> </ul> </div> <div class="section level3"> |
