hydroPSO (version 0.5-1)

ReadPlot_results: Reading/Plotting all the output files generated by ‘hydroPSO’

Description

The function read_results reads the following output files of hydroPSO:

1) ‘BestParameterSet.txt’: best parameter set and its corresponding goodness-of-fit found during the optimisation 2) ‘Particles.txt’: parameter values and their corresponding goodness-of-fit value for all particles and iterations 3) ‘Velocities.txt’: velocity values and their corresponding goodness-of-fit value for all particles and iterations 4) ‘Model_out.txt’: values of the objective function/model output for each particle and iteration 5) ‘ConvergenceMeasures.txt’: convergence measures summarizing performance of hydroPSO 6) ‘Particles_GofPerIter.txt’: goodness-of-fit only for all the particles during all the iterations

The function plot_results takes the outputs of the read_results function and then produces the following plots:

1) Dotty plots of parameter values 2) Histograms of parameter values 3) Boxplots of parameter values 4) Correlation matrix among parameter values (optional) 5) Empirical CDFs of parameter values 6) Parameter values vs Number of Model Evaluations 7) (pseudo) 3D dotty plots of (selected) parameter values 8) GoF for each particle against Number of Model Evaluations 9) Velocity values vs Number of Model Evaluations 10a) Scatterplot between Best Simulated values and Observations (OPTIONAL, only if MinMax is provided) 10b) Empirical CDFs for model's output (only produced if obs is NOT a zoo object) 10b) ggof (See ggof) between Best Simulated values and Observations (OPTIONAL, only if obs is a zoo object) 10d) Empirical CDFs for selected quantiles of model's output (OPTIONAL, only if obs is a zoo object) 11) Convergence Measures (Gbest and normSwarmRadius) vs Iteration Number

Arguments

drty.out

character, path to the directory storing the output files generated by hydroPSO

param.names

character, names for the parameters in params that have to be plotted (param.names can be a subset of params). Names for each parameter are taken from the first row of the ‘Particles.txt’ file

verbose

logical, if TRUE, progress messages are printed

gof.name

character, name of the goodness-of-fit variable in all plots

MinMax

OPTIONAL. character, indicates whether the optimum value in x corresponds to the minimum or maximum of the objective function. It is only used to identify the optimum on the plots Valid values are in: c('min', 'max')

beh.thr

OPTIONAL. numeric, threshold to filter out parameter sets and model outputs with a non-acceptable performance (non behavioural parameter sets)

nsim

OPTIONAL. number simulated equivalent values of the model / objective function to be compared against observations. It is only useful when the model to be calibrated returns NA instead of the simulated values for some parameter set(s) (e.g., MODFLOW). See read_out

modelout.cols

numeric, column number in file that store the outputs that have to be read/plotted, without counting the first three that correspond to iteration, particle and GoF. If modelout.cols=NULL, all the columns in will be read, but the first trhee that contains the iteration number, the particle number and the corresponding goodness-of-fit. See read_out

OPTIONAL. Only used when plot=TRUE logical, if TRUE, the histogram graphic is a representation of frequencies, the counts component of the result; if FALSE, probability densities, component density, are plotted (so that the histogram has a total area of one). Defaults to TRUE if and only if breaks are equidistant (and probability is not specified). See hist

do.pairs

OPTIONAL. Only used when plot=TRUE logical, indicates whether a correlation matrix among parameters has to be plotted. If the number of parameter sets tried during the optimisation is large, it may require some time.

model.values

numeric or matrix/data.frame with the values of the objective function / model for each particle and iteration. See read_out

model.best

numeric with the best model / objective function value. In order to be computed, the user has to provide a valid value for MinMax. See read_out
