Hi, Great, the delta_omega value should be different when clustering. For the high values, you should check the fitted curves to see if you see any issues. It is likely that this is actually the values at the minimum, and that noise or some experimental bias is pushing the values too high. But if that's what the data says, then there is nothing you can do about it. Adding constraints to prevent such situations is just an ugly hack - the end result will be meaningless anyway as it is not the minimum. The best is to report the value with its Monte Carlo simulation error. You will probably find that the errors for these high delta_omega values will also be large and hence the large values are not statistically meaningful.

But we do though think that dw has high values. There is a 18 ppm and 10 ppm in there. Now trying with ShereKhan. Best Troels 2014-04-30 10:45 GMT+02:00 Edward d'Auvergne <edward@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>:Hi, I should expand on the statistics a bit more. Maybe using AIC would clarify the noise vs. real data components. Here is a short table: Set Chi2 k AIC Individual 32.97 10 52.97 Cluster 48.79 8 64.79 So even using AIC, the individual fit is better. Statistically it is not that you are just fitting more noise in the non-clustered fit. That is significant! One thing I noticed is that dw is the same for both spins in the clustered fit. Could you check if this is the case for other clustering cases? It must be different for each spin. Maybe there is an important bug there.

The second line of the input file has this time. Was it that relax could not create the input files rather than ShereKhan not handling this?My problem origins from that I would like to compare results from Igor Pro script. Yet, another software solution.Have you run the Igor Pro script to compare to relax? With the same input data, all software solutions should give the same result. This is important - you need to determine if the issue is with relax or with the data itself. It is best to first assume that the problem is with relax, then see if other software produces a different result (the more comparisons here the better). Maybe relax is not handling the two different times correctly. Otherwise if everything has the pA = 0.5 problem then the solution, if one exists, will be very different.I now got the expected pA values of 0.97 if I did a cluster of two residues.This could indicate that the pA = 0.5 issue is in the data itself, probably due to noise. You should confirm this by comparing to other software though. Comparing to the 'NS CPMG 2-site expanded' might also be useful.If I do an initial Grid inc of 21, use relax_disp.set_grid_r20_from_min_r2eff(force=False) I get this.As I mentioned before (http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.science.nmr.relax.scm/20597/focus=5390), maybe it would be better to shorten this user function name as it is a little misleading - it is about custom value setting and not the grid search, despite it being useful for the later.:10@N GRID r2600=20.28 r2500=18.48 dw=1.0 pA=0.900 kex=2000.80 chi2=28.28 spin_id=:10@N resi=10 resn=G :10@N MIN r2600=19.64 r2500=17.88 dw=0.7 pA=0.500 kex=2665.16 chi2=14.61 spin_id=:10@N resi=10 resn=G :10@N Clust r2600=18.43 r2500=16.98 dw=2.7 pA=0.972 kex=3831.77 chi2=48.79 spin_id=:10@N resi=10 resn=G :11@N GRID r2600=19.54 r2500=17.96 dw=1.0 pA=0.825 kex=3500.65 chi2=47.22 spin_id=:11@N resi=11 resn=D :11@N MIN r2600=14.98 r2500=15.08 dw=1.6 pA=0.760 kex=6687.15 chi2=18.36 spin_id=:11@N resi=11 resn=D :11@N Clust r2600=18.19 r2500=17.31 dw=2.7 pA=0.972 kex=3831.77 chi2=48.79 spin_id=:11@N resi=11 resn=DIf you sum the chi-squared values, which is possible as these are all the same model, then you can compare the individual fits and the clustered fit. The individual fit total chi-squared value is 32.97. The cluster value is 48.79. This is very important - the individual fit is much, much better. You should make a plot of the fitted curves for both and compare. Note that a better fit does not mean a better result, as you are fitting both a data component and noise component. So the better fit might be due to the noise component. This is why clustering exists.Ideally, I would like to cluster 68 residues. But as you can see, if several of my residues start out with dw/pA far from the Clustered result, this minimisation takes hilarious long time.I can see how this would be a problem for you mass screening exercises. This will probably require a lot of investigation on your part to solve, as I have not seen any solution published in the literature. Though if you could find a solution in the literature, that would probably save you a lot of time. You could also ask others in the field. If you remember (http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.science.nmr.relax.devel/4647/focus=4648), you changed the parameter averaging to the parameter median for the clustering. So maybe that is having an effect. Anyway, you need to first compare to other software or models and see if there is a problem in relax first, before trying to invent a solution. Regards, Edward
