Accuracy
What is the approximation error of the result?
The approximation error indicators (predict the metamodel accuracy of the results) can be visualized in the LS-OPT Viewer.
New Plot
- To view a new plot select the plot button on the task bar. A seperate window of LS-OPT Viewer opens up.
LS-OPT Viewer
- Select under Metamodel the item Accuracy
- From Entity select Responses → HIC.
- We can find RMS Error and R2 (R-sq) above the plot.
→ Despite the coefficient of determination (R2) being high (=0.922), the RMS Error may need further improvement, e.g. more iterations or selection of a more suitable metamodel (e.g. Feedforward Neural Network or Radial Basis Function Network). Nevertheless for a raw estimate the result may be considered as acceptable.
→ It is important to note that the metamodel performs poor in cross-validation test using the SPRESS method. A relatively high SPRESS value (=91.4%) justifies a low confidence and a low predictive capability of the fitted metamodel.
- With the same procedure you may find the RMS Error, R² and SPRESS Residual of the other responses:
