This function finds the smallest relative error still resulting in passing the chi-squared test as defined in the FOCUS kinetics report from 2006.

mkinerrmin(fit, alpha = 0.05)

Arguments

fit
an object of class mkinfit.
alpha
The confidence level chosen for the chi-squared test.

Value

A dataframe with the following components:

The dataframe has one row for the total dataset and one further row for each observed state variable in the model.

Details

This function is used internally by summary.mkinfit.
