predAccuracy {soilassessment}

A function for accuracy assessment between an array of two variables

Description

This function calculates statistical indices for accuracy between an array of two variables such as calibration and validation vectors. The indices are Bias, RMSE, R-squared, and NSE

Usage

predAccuracy(x,y)

Arguments

x

a numeric vector of first variable of the two variables for accuracy assessment

y

a numeric vector of second variable of the two variables for accuracy assessment

Details

The function calculates four indices for accuracy: bias, root mean square error (RMSE), r-squared, Nash-sutcliffe efficiency (NSE)

Value

A table of four variables: bias, RMSE, Rsquared, and NSE
