Goodness of Fit : Mean Error {ehaGoF}

Mean Error

Description

Calculates and returns mean error (ME).

Usage

gofME(Obs, Prd, dgt = 3)

Arguments

Obs

Observed or measured values or target vector.

Prd

Predicted or fitted values by the model. Values produced by approximation or regression.

dgt

Number of digits in decimal places. Default is 3.

Value

MeanError

Goodness of fit - mean error (ME)

Examples

# dummy inputs, independent variable
# integers from 0 to 19
inputs <- 0:19

# dummy targets/observed values, dependent variable
# a product of 2*times inputs minus 5 with some normal noise
targets <- -5 + inputs*1.2 + rnorm(20)

# linear regression model
model<-lm(targets~inputs)
