Avoid using predictions.txt in Monolix reader

Open baltcir1 opened this issue 5 years ago • 4 comments

At the time of alpha ggPMX testing by Monolix SME team, I made a comment that prediction.txt should be replaced by the corresponding output under chart data folder.

Motivation is to increase compatibility if merging is required between several outputs under chart data (rounding is consistent here) and because prediction.txt is an old and historical file… I don't know if Lixoft will maintain it. Hope that helps.

This implies :

  • Change to predictions section in configuration file : ggPMX/inst/templates/mlx18/standing.ipmx
  • Create a new function like read_mlx_pred to read the new predictions file

Hope that helps

@baltcir1: can you precisely identified the new output in the chart data folder?

Yes, for Monolix 2018, I think its in ChartsData/ScatterPlotOfTheResiduals/xxx_residuals.txt where "xxx" is the name of the output variable (not 100% sure if it changes between projects). If we change to the above, then, we'll have a difference between 2016 and 2018. But there was a good reason for changing and in the long run, most users will use recent Monolix versions anyways.
