| dmcFitSubjectDE | R Documentation | 
Fit theoretical data generated from dmcSim to observed data by minimizing the root-mean-square error (RMSE) between a weighted combination of the CAF and CDF functions using the R-package DEoptim. Alternative cost functions include squared percentage error ("SPE"), and g-squared statistic ("GS").

| resOb | Observed data (see flankerData and simonTask for data format) | 
| nTrl | The number of trials to use within dmcSim. | 
| minVals | Minimum values for the to-be estimated parameters. This is a list with values specified individually for amp, tau, drc, bnds, resMean, resSD, aaShape, spShape, sigm (e.g., minVals = list(amp = 10, tau = 5, drc = 0.1, bnds = 20, resMean = 200, resSD = 5, aaShape = 1, spShape = 2, spBias = -20, sigm = 1, bndsRate=0, bndsSaturation=0)). | 
| maxVals | Maximum values for the to-be estimated parameters. This is a list with values specified individually for amp, tau, drc, bnds, resMean, resSD, aaShape, spShape, sigm (e.g., maxVals = list(amp = 40, tau = 300, drc = 1.0, bnds = 150, bndsRate=1, bndsSaturation=500, resMean = 800, resSD = 100, aaShape = 3, spShape = 4, spBias = 20, sigm = 10)) | 
| fixedFit | Fix parameter to starting value. This is a list with bool values specified individually for amp, tau, drc, bnds, resMean, resSD, aaShape, spShape, sigm (e.g., fixedFit = list(amp = F, tau = F, drc = F, bnds = F, bndsRate=T, bndsSaturation=T, resMean = F, resSD = F, aaShape = F, spShape = F, spBias = T, sigm = T, bndsRate=T, bndsSaturation=T)) NB. Value if fixed at midpoint between minVals and maxVals. | 
| freeCombined | If fitting 2+ datasets at once, which parameters are allowed to vary between both fits (default = all parameters fixed between the two fits e.g. parameter = F). This is a list with bool values specified individually for amp, tau, drc, bnds, resMean, resSD, aaShape, spShape, spBias, sigm (e.g., freeCombined = list(amp = F, tau = F, drc = F, bnds = F, bndsRate=F, bndsSaturation=F, resMean = F, resSD = F, aaShape = F, spShape = F, spBias = F, sigm = F)) | 
| nCAF | The number of CAF bins. | 
| nDelta | The number of delta bins. | 
| pDelta | An alternative option to nDelta (tDelta = 1 only) by directly specifying required percentile values (vector of values 0-100) | 
| tDelta | The type of delta calculation (1=direct percentiles points, 2=percentile bounds (tile) averaging) | 
| deltaErrors | TRUE/FALSE Calculate delta bins for error trials | 
| costFunction | The cost function to minimise: root mean square error ("RMSE": default), squared percentage error ("SPE"), or likelihood-ratio chi-square statistic ("GS") | 
| spDist | The starting point distribution (0 = constant, 1 = beta, 2 = uniform) | 
| drOnset | The starting point of controlled drift rate (i.e., "target" information) relative to automatic ("distractor" incormation) (> 0 ms) | 
| drDist | The drift rate (dr) distribution type (0 = constant, 1 = beta, 2 = uniform) | 
| drShape | The drift rate (dr) shape parameter | 
| drLim | The drift rate (dr) range | 
| rtMax | The limit on simulated RT (decision + non-decisional components) | 
| subjects | NULL (aggregated data across all subjects) or integer for subject number | 
| deControl | Additional control parameters passed to DEoptim (see DEoptim.control) | 
| numCores | Number of cores to use | 
dmcFitSubjectDE returns a list of objects of class "dmcfit"
