Hi, I wonder whether any code to get the R Square and the mean standard error of the fitness of different distribution? thank you!

joethorley commented 2 years ago

@liqian-Rcees R Square measures the variation in the data that is explained by one or more predictors. In the current context there are no predictors as the models simply describe the variation in the data so R2 is not applicable.

See also issue #111

I'm not sure what the mean standard error of the fitness is.

@joethorley Thank you for your response, I wonder whether R2 can be reckoned by a pair of the collected toxicology data and the its responding predicted value at the same proportion of species affected in a certain distribution. mean standard error (MSE) is similar to RSS #111 . if these can be added to the gof function, results may provide more information and choices for users. This is just a suggestion, I also referred to the EPA SSDgenerator based on log-norm dist, thank you! https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/view.aspx?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.epa.gov%2Fsites%2Fdefault%2Ffiles%2F2017-10%2Fssd_generator_v1.xlsm&wdOrigin=BROWSELINK

@liqian-Rcees - this is outside the scope of the current software
