Mean Squared Error
Mean squared error between sim
and obs
, in the squared units of sim
and obs
, with treatment of missing values.
mse(sim, obs, ...) ## Default S3 method: mse(sim, obs, na.rm=TRUE, ...) ## S3 method for class 'data.frame' mse(sim, obs, na.rm=TRUE, ...) ## S3 method for class 'matrix' mse(sim, obs, na.rm=TRUE, ...) ## S3 method for class 'zoo' mse(sim, obs, na.rm=TRUE, ...)
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. |
... |
further arguments passed to or from other methods. |
mse = mean( (sim - obs)^2, na.rm = TRUE)
Mean squared error between sim
and obs
.
If sim
and obs
are matrixes, the returned value is a vector, with the mean squared error between each column of sim
and obs
.
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
