In growthmodels: Nonlinear Growth Models

Morgan-Mercer-Flodin growth model

Description

Computes the Morgan-Mercer-Flodin growth model

y(t) = \frac{(w_0 \gamma + \alpha t^m)}{\gamma} +t^m

Usage

mmf(t, alpha, w0, gamma, m)

mmf.inverse(x, alpha, w0, gamma, m)

Arguments

t	time
alpha	upper asymptote
w0	the value at t = 0
gamma	parameter that controls the point of inflection
m	growth rate
x	size
