validMLEmodel: validMLEmodel

In oyvble/euroformix: A Quantitative Model for Interpreting DNA Mixtures

validMLEmodel

Description

validMLEmodel makes model validation whether the observed peak heights fits the maximum likelihood fitted gamma distribution.

Usage

validMLEmodel(
  mlefit,
  kit = NULL,
  plottitle = "PP-plot",
  alpha = 0.01,
  createplot = TRUE,
  verbose = TRUE
)

Arguments

mlefit	Fitted object using contLikMLE
kit	This is no longer used.
plottitle	Maintitle text used in the PP-plot
alpha	The significance level used for the envelope test. Default is 0.01
createplot	Boolean of whether plot should be created
verbose	Boolean of whether printing out information about significant alleles

Details

The cumulative probability of the observed allele peaks are calculated and compared with a uniform distribution. Function calls a 'cumulative procedure' in C++ which uses the package Boost and performs paralellisation (OpenMP).

Value

retinfo A dataframe with information from the calculated validation model
