The transformations are intended to map parameters that should only take
on restricted values to the full scale of real numbers. For kinetic rate
constants and other paramters that can only take on positive values, a
simple log transformation is used. For compositional parameters, such as
the formations fractions that should always sum up to 1 and can not be
negative, the ilr
transformation is used.
The transformation of sets of formation fractions is fragile, as it supposes
the same ordering of the components in forward and backward transformation.
This is no problem for the internal use in mkinfit
.

, containing the names of
the model variables that are needed for grouping the formation fractions
before ilr
transformation, the parameter names and
the information if the pathway to sink is included in the model.

transformation.
A vector of transformed or backtransformed parameters with the same names as the original parameters.
