Our score showed a useful fit within the DC as shown graphically and using the Hosmer-Lemeshow test on 10 strata.
The mean-square values in the range of 0.5 to 1.5 is conventionally considered indicative of "useful fit" (Weigle 1998).
The AIC and CAIC are useful fit indices for allowing comparison between models [ 32].
To determine the central slope of these averaged displacement profiles we first determined the useful fit range.
WinBUGS is particularly useful for fitting complex hierarchical models that would be difficult to handle using a maximum-likelihood approach, which was important to our decision to fit our models with a Bayesian approach.
So, changing the device parameters leads to a change in the simulated device I-V which is very useful in fitting the model with the experimental data.
Whereas such a two-parameter demonstration of the distribution function could be useful in fitting to a wider range of experimental plasmas.
The PC index might be useful in fitting the solar wind-magnetosphere coupling function, monitoring and nowcasting the magnetosphere state, and resolving other problems which require the actual information about the solar wind-magnetosphere-ionosphere interaction.
The version of PSO utilized in this report has been published previously and was particularly useful for fitting parameters to signaling models [ 26, 35].
On the other hand, it naturally deals with measurement error and might also be useful for fitting to datasets which do not comply with the SDE assumption, for example, if data points are averages over replicates, come from different samples and/or represent a population of cells.
