Sum of the Squared Residuals

Description

Sum of the Squared Residuals between sim and obs, with treatment of missing values. Its units are the squared measurement units of sim and obs.

Usage

ssq(sim, obs, ...)

## Default S3 method:
ssq(sim, obs, na.rm = TRUE, fun=NULL, ..., 
            epsilon.type=c("none", "Pushpalatha2012", "otherFactor", "otherValue"), 
            epsilon.value=NA)

## S3 method for class 'data.frame'
ssq(sim, obs, na.rm=TRUE, fun=NULL, ..., 
            epsilon.type=c("none", "Pushpalatha2012", "otherFactor", "otherValue"), 
            epsilon.value=NA)

## S3 method for class 'matrix'
ssq(sim, obs, na.rm=TRUE, fun=NULL, ..., 
            epsilon.type=c("none", "Pushpalatha2012", "otherFactor", "otherValue"), 
            epsilon.value=NA)
## S3 method for class 'zoo'
ssq(sim, obs, na.rm=TRUE, fun=NULL, ..., 
            epsilon.type=c("none", "Pushpalatha2012", "otherFactor", "otherValue"), 
            epsilon.value=NA)

Arguments

sim

numeric, zoo, matrix or data.frame with simulated values

obs

numeric, zoo, matrix or data.frame with observed values

na.rm

a logical value indicating whether 'NA' should be stripped before the computation proceeds.
When an 'NA' value is found at the i-th position in obs OR sim, the i-th value of obs AND sim are removed before the computation.

fun

function to be applied to sim and obs in order to obtain transformed values thereof before computing this goodness-of-fit index.

The first argument MUST BE a numeric vector with any name (e.g., x), and additional arguments are passed using ....

...

arguments passed to fun, in addition to the mandatory first numeric vector.

epsilon.type

argument used to define a numeric value to be added to both sim and obs before applying fun.

It is was designed to allow the use of logarithm and other similar functions that do not work with zero values.

Valid values of epsilon.type are:

1) "none": sim and obs are used by fun without the addition of any numeric value. This is the default option.

2) "Pushpalatha2012": one hundredth (1/100) of the mean observed values is added to both sim and obs before applying fun, as described in Pushpalatha et al. (2012).

3) "otherFactor": the numeric value defined in the epsilon.value argument is used to multiply the the mean observed values, instead of the one hundredth (1/100) described in Pushpalatha et al. (2012). The resulting value is then added to both sim and obs, before applying fun.

4) "otherValue": the numeric value defined in the epsilon.value argument is directly added to both sim and obs, before applying fun.

epsilon.value

-) when epsilon.type="otherValue" it represents the numeric value to be added to both sim and obs before applying fun.
-) when epsilon.type="otherFactor" it represents the numeric factor used to multiply the mean of the observed values, instead of the one hundredth (1/100) described in Pushpalatha et al. (2012). The resulting value is then added to both sim and obs before applying fun.

Details

ssr = \sum_{i=1}^N { (S_i - O_i )^2 }

Value

Sum of the squared residuals between sim and obs.

If sim and obs are matrixes, the returned value is a vector, with the SSR between each column of sim and obs.

Note

obs and sim has to have the same length/dimension

The missing values in obs and sim are removed before the computation proceeds, and only those positions with non-missing values in obs and sim are considered in the computation

Examples

obs <- 1:10
sim <- 1:10
ssq(sim, obs)

obs <- 1:10
sim <- 2:11
ssq(sim, obs)

##################
# Loading daily streamflows of the Ega River (Spain), from 1961 to 1970
data(EgaEnEstellaQts)
obs <- EgaEnEstellaQts

# Generating a simulated daily time series, initially equal to the observed series
sim <- obs 

# Computing the 'rNSeff' for the "best" (unattainable) case
ssq(sim=sim, obs=obs)

# Randomly changing the first 2000 elements of 'sim', by using a normal distribution 
# with mean 10 and standard deviation equal to 1 (default of 'rnorm').
sim[1:2000] <- obs[1:2000] + rnorm(2000, mean=10)

# Computing the new 'rNSeff'
ssq(sim=sim, obs=obs)
