The model fitted in the paper has $$ \mathrm{logit}(\mu_t) = \beta_1 + \beta_2 x_{t2} + \beta_3 x_{t3} + \beta_4 x_{t2} x_{t3} $$ for the mean, and $$ \log(\sigma^2_t) = \gamma_1 + \gamma_2 x_{t3} + \gamma_3 x_{t2} x_{t3} $$ for the dispersion, where $x_{t2}$ = `corr_ar` (air flow) and $x_{t3}$ = `temp_agua` (cooling water inlet temperature). ## One-call reproduction The function `paper_ammonia()` fits this model, runs the bootstrap GoF test, and produces the diagnostic plots from the paper in a single call. We use `B = 50` bootstrap replicates here for speed; the paper uses `B = 1000`. ```{r, fig.alt = "Diagnostic plots for the ammonia application"} res <- paper_ammonia(B = 50, seed = 123, plot = TRUE, verbose = FALSE) ``` ### Parameter estimates (Table 5 of the paper) ```{r} print(res$table_params, row.names = FALSE) ``` ### Goodness-of-fit results (Table 6 of the paper) ```{r} print(res$table_gof, row.names = FALSE) ``` ## Step by step The same analysis can be reproduced manually with the lower-level functions of the package: ```{r} data(ammonia) X <- cbind(1, ammonia$corr_ar, ammonia$temp_agua, ammonia$corr_ar * ammonia$temp_agua) Z <- cbind(1, ammonia$temp_agua, ammonia$corr_ar * ammonia$temp_agua) fit <- simplex_fit(ammonia$perda, X, Z) fit dg <- simplex_diag(fit) dg$Tn dg$Un ``` ```{r, fig.alt = "Influence index plot for the ammonia model"} plot_influence(dg) ``` ```{r} set.seed(123) gof <- simplex_gof(ammonia$perda, X, Z, B = 50, verbose = FALSE) gof ``` ```{r, fig.alt = "Bootstrap distribution of Un for the ammonia application"} plot_gof_boot(gof) ``` As reported in the paper, the test does not reject $H_0$ at conventional significance levels for this model, consistent with an adequate fit. ## References Brownlee, K.
