Scale Parameters to [0,1]

Description

Scale parameters for function minimization by calcMin.

Usage

scalePar(pvec)

Arguments

pvec	a data frame comprising four columns - c("val","min","max","active") and as many rows as there are model parameters. The "active" field (logical) determines whether the parameters are estimated (TRUE) or remain fixed (FALSE).

Details

Scaling algorithm: S = \frac{2}{\pi} asin \sqrt{ \frac{P - P_{min}}{P_{max} - P_{min}} }

Value

Parameter vector scaled between 0 and 1.
