mkin (version 1.2.6)

summary.mkinfit: Summary method for class "mkinfit"

Description

Lists model equations, initial parameter values, optimised parameters with some uncertainty statistics, the chi2 error levels calculated according to FOCUS guidance (2006) as defined therein, formation fractions, DT50 values and optionally the data, consisting of observed, predicted and residual values.

Usage

# S3 method for mkinfit
summary(object, data = TRUE, distimes = TRUE, alpha = 0.05, ...)

# S3 method for summary.mkinfit print(x, digits = max(3, getOption("digits") - 3), ...)

Value

The summary function returns a list 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

diffs

The differential equations used in the model

use_of_ff

Was maximum or minimum use made of formation fractions

bpar

Optimised and backtransformed parameters

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.

errparms

Error model parameters.

ff

The estimated formation fractions derived from the fitted model.

distimes

The DT50 and DT90 values for each observed variable.

SFORB

If applicable, eigenvalues and fractional eigenvector component g of SFORB systems in the model.

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

Arguments

object

an object of class 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

...

optional arguments passed to methods like print.

x

an object of class summary.mkinfit.

digits

Number of digits to use for printing
