Appendix C: Benchmark Examples

In this section, five published examples are presented for comparison purposes. ReliaSoft's R&D validated the ALTA software with hundreds of data sets and methods. ALTA also cross-validates each provided solution by independently re-evaluating the second partial derivatives based on the estimated parameters each time a calculation is performed. These partials will be equal to zero when a solution is reached. Double precision is used throughout ALTA.
