Arguments

npt	The number of points used to approximate the objective function via a quadratic approximation for bobyqa. The value of npt must be in the interval [n+2,(n+1)(n+2)/2] where n is the number of parameters in par. Choices that exceed 2*n+1 are not recommended. If not defined, it will be set to 2*n + 1. (bobyqa)
rhobeg	Beginning change in parameters for bobyqa algorithm (trust region). By default this is 0.2 or 20 parameters when the parameters are scaled to 1. rhobeg and rhoend must be set to the initial and final values of a trust region radius, so both must be positive with 0 < rhoend < rhobeg. Typically rhobeg should be about one tenth of the greatest expected change to a variable. Note also that smallest difference abs(upper-lower) should be greater than or equal to rhobeg*2. If this is not the case then rhobeg will be adjusted. (bobyqa)
rhoend	The smallest value of the trust region radius that is allowed. If not defined, then 10^(-sigdig-1) will be used. (bobyqa)
iprint	The value of 'iprint' should be set to an integer value in '0, 1, 2, 3, ...', which controls the amount of printing. Specifically, there is no output if 'iprint=0' and there is output only at the start and the return if 'iprint=1'. Otherwise, each new value of 'rho' is printed, with the best vector of variables so far and the corresponding value of the objective function. Further, each new value of the objective function with its variables are output if 'iprint=3'. If 'iprint > 3', the objective function value and corresponding variables are output every 'iprint' evaluations. Default value is '0'.
maxfun	The maximum allowed number of function evaluations. If this is exceeded, the method will terminate.
returnNewuoa	return the newuoa output instead of the nlmixr2 fit
stickyRecalcN	The number of bad ODE solves before reducing the atol/rtol for the rest of the problem.
maxOdeRecalc	Maximum number of times to reduce the ODE tolerances and try to resolve the system if there was a bad ODE solve.
odeRecalcFactor	The ODE recalculation factor when ODE solving goes bad, this is the factor the rtol/atol is reduced
useColor	Boolean indicating if focei can use ASCII color codes
printNcol	Number of columns to printout before wrapping parameter estimates/gradient
print	Integer representing when the outer step is printed. When this is 0 or do not print the iterations. 1 is print every function evaluation (default), 5 is print every 5 evaluations.
normType	This is the type of parameter normalization/scaling used to get the scaled initial values for nlmixr2. These are used with scaleType of. With the exception of rescale2, these come from Feature Scaling. The rescale2 The rescaling is the same type described in the OptdesX software manual. In general, all all scaling formula can be described by: v_{scaled} = ( v_{unscaled}-C_{1} )/ C_{2} Where The other data normalization approaches follow the following formula v_{scaled} = ( v_{unscaled}-C_{1} )/ C_{2} rescale2 This scales all parameters from (-1 to 1). The relative differences between the parameters are preserved with this approach and the constants are: C_{1} = (max(all unscaled values)+min(all unscaled values))/2 C_{2} = (max(all unscaled values) - min(all unscaled values))/2 rescale or min-max normalization. This rescales all parameters from (0 to 1). As in the rescale2 the relative differences are preserved. In this approach: C_{1} = min(all unscaled values) C_{2} = max(all unscaled values) - min(all unscaled values) mean or mean normalization. This rescales to center the parameters around the mean but the parameters are from 0 to 1. In this approach: C_{1} = mean(all unscaled values) C_{2} = max(all unscaled values) - min(all unscaled values) std or standardization. This standardizes by the mean and standard deviation. In this approach: C_{1} = mean(all unscaled values) C_{2} = sd(all unscaled values) len or unit length scaling. This scales the parameters to the unit length. For this approach we use the Euclidean length, that is: C_{1} = 0 C_{2} = \sqrt(v_1^2 + v_2^2 + \cdots + v_n^2) constant which does not perform data normalization. That is C_{1} = 0 C_{2} = 1
scaleType	The scaling scheme for nlmixr2. The supported types are: nlmixr2 In this approach the scaling is performed by the following equation: v_{scaled} = ( v_{current} - v_{init} )*scaleC[i] + scaleTo The scaleTo parameter is specified by the normType, and the scales are specified by scaleC. norm This approach uses the simple scaling provided by the normType argument. mult This approach does not use the data normalization provided by normType, but rather uses multiplicative scaling to a constant provided by the scaleTo argument. In this case: v_{scaled} = v_{current} / v_{init} *scaleTo multAdd This approach changes the scaling based on the parameter being specified. If a parameter is defined in an exponential block (ie exp(theta)), then it is scaled on a linearly, that is: v_{scaled} = ( v_{current}-v_{init} ) + scaleTo Otherwise the parameter is scaled multiplicatively. v_{scaled} = v_{current} / v_{init} *scaleTo
scaleCmax	Maximum value of the scaleC to prevent overflow.
scaleCmin	Minimum value of the scaleC to prevent underflow.
scaleC	The scaling constant used with scaleType=nlmixr2. When not specified, it is based on the type of parameter that is estimated. The idea is to keep the derivatives similar on a log scale to have similar gradient sizes. Hence parameters like log(exp(theta)) would have a scaling factor of 1 and log(theta) would have a scaling factor of ini_value (to scale by 1/value; ie d/dt(log(ini_value)) = 1/ini_value or scaleC=ini_value) For parameters in an exponential (ie exp(theta)) or parameters specifying powers, boxCox or yeoJohnson transformations , this is 1. For additive, proportional, lognormal error structures, these are given by 0.5*abs(initial_estimate) Factorials are scaled by abs(1/digamma(initial_estimate+1)) parameters in a log scale (ie log(theta)) are transformed by log(abs(initial_estimate))*abs(initial_estimate) These parameter scaling coefficients are chose to try to keep similar slopes among parameters. That is they all follow the slopes approximately on a log-scale. While these are chosen in a logical manner, they may not always apply. You can specify each parameters scaling factor by this parameter if you wish.
scaleTo	Scale the initial parameter estimate to this value. By default this is 1. When zero or below, no scaling is performed.
rxControl	'rxode2' ODE solving options during fitting, created with 'rxControl()'
optExpression	Optimize the rxode2 expression to speed up calculation. By default this is turned on.
sumProd	Is a boolean indicating if the model should change multiplication to high precision multiplication and sums to high precision sums using the PreciseSums package. By default this is FALSE.
literalFix	boolean, substitute fixed population values as literals and re-adjust ui and parameter estimates after optimization; Default is 'TRUE'.
addProp	specifies the type of additive plus proportional errors, the one where standard deviations add (combined1) or the type where the variances add (combined2). The combined1 error type can be described by the following equation: y = f + (a + b\times f^c) \times \varepsilon The combined2 error model can be described by the following equation: y = f + \sqrt{a^2 + b^2\times f^{2\times c}} \times \varepsilon Where: - y represents the observed value - f represents the predicted value - a is the additive standard deviation - b is the proportional/power standard deviation - c is the power exponent (in the proportional case c=1)
calcTables	This boolean is to determine if the foceiFit will calculate tables. By default this is TRUE
compress	Should the object have compressed items
covMethod	Method for calculating covariance. In this discussion, R is the Hessian matrix of the objective function. The S matrix is the sum of individual gradient cross-product (evaluated at the individual empirical Bayes estimates). "r,s" Uses the sandwich matrix to calculate the covariance, that is: solve(R) %*% S %*% solve(R) "r" Uses the Hessian matrix to calculate the covariance as 2 %*% solve(R) "s" Uses the cross-product matrix to calculate the covariance as 4 %*% solve(S) "" Does not calculate the covariance step.
adjObf	is a boolean to indicate if the objective function should be adjusted to be closer to NONMEM's default objective function. By default this is TRUE
ci	Confidence level for some tables. By default this is 0.95 or 95% confidence.
sigdig	Optimization significant digits. This controls: The tolerance of the inner and outer optimization is 10^-sigdig The tolerance of the ODE solvers is 0.5*10^(-sigdig-2); For the sensitivity equations and steady-state solutions the default is 0.5*10^(-sigdig-1.5) (sensitivity changes only applicable for liblsoda) The tolerance of the boundary check is 5 * 10 ^ (-sigdig + 1)
sigdigTable	Significant digits in the final output table. If not specified, then it matches the significant digits in the 'sigdig' optimization algorithm. If 'sigdig' is NULL, use 3.
...	Ignored parameters
