Summary method for class "mkinfit"

Usage

"summary"(object, data = TRUE, distimes = TRUE, alpha = 0.05, ...) "print"(x, digits = max(3, getOption("digits") - 3), ...)

Arguments

object
an object of class mkinfit.
x
an object of class summary.mkinfit.
data
logical, indicating whether the data should be included in the summary.
distimes
logical, indicating whether DT50 and DT90 values should be included.
alpha
error level for confidence interval estimation from t distribution
digits
Number of digits to use for printing
...
optional arguments passed to methods like print.

Description

Lists model equations, the summary as returned by summary.modFit, the chi2 error levels calculated according to FOCUS guidance (2006) as far as defined therein, and optionally the data, consisting of observed, predicted and residual values.

Value

The summary function returns a list derived from summary.modFit, with components, among others
version, Rversion
The mkin and R versions used

date.fit, date.summary
The dates where the fit and the summary were produced

use_of_ff
Was maximum or minimum use made of formation fractions

residuals, residualVariance, sigma, modVariance, df
As in summary.modFit

cov.unscaled, cov.scaled, info, niter, stopmess, par
As in summary.modFit

bpar
Optimised and backtransformed parameters

diffs
The differential equations used in the model

data
The data (see Description above).

start
The starting values and bounds, if applicable, for optimised parameters.

fixed
The values of fixed parameters.

errmin
The chi2 error levels for each observed variable.

bparms.ode
All backtransformed ODE parameters, for use as starting parameters for related models.

ff
The estimated formation fractions derived from the fitted model.

distimes
The DT50 and DT90 values for each observed variable.

SFORB
If applicable, eigenvalues of SFORB components of the model.

The print method is called for its side effect, i.e. printing the summary.
