Hi Petr,

For the new bug report at https://gna.org/bugs/?24675, now looking at
the results I can see that this is actually quite a deliberate
feature.  For reference, I will attach the plots for residues 133 and
134 for the CR2 model as a PDF file to that bug report
(disp_CKIRD_133_N.pdf and disp_CKIRD_134_N.pdf).  For residue 133,
there the blue line can be seen to be the dispersion curve predicted
for the missing 600 MHz data.  For 134, the green line is the
predicted dispersion curve for the 950 MHz data.

The R20 values come from the fitting of the single field strength data
points, and this value is independent of field strength.  So the
predicted curves are perfectly correct - they are exactly where they
are supposed to be.  Assuming the model to be correct, the predicted
curves are what the real data should look like.  So the curves without
measured data are actually quite powerful tools for investigating why
the data is missing.  They are also useful for investigating how well
the model fits to single field strength data.  It is also quite easy
in Grace to double click on the curve and hide it, if desired.
Therefore I think I'll leave the plotting code as it is.

Hi Petr,

Sorry, the R20 values are field strength dependent, but both are fit
during the optimisation of the dispersion models with missing data.
This is problematic as one parameter is undefined - the R20 for the
missing field - and this interferes with optimisation algorithms.  The
undefined R20 value can float around to any value, and this breaks the
rules that most algorithms absolutely rely on.  Hence the solution
found is unlikely to be the minimum in the optimisation space.  I
would therefore suggest deselecting these spins for now, as the
results are nonsensical.  It might take me a while to update each part
of relax to detect the missing data for one entire field strength from
the N fields, and drop back to N-1 fields.  This bug might take a
while to fix!  I might have to spend a few days working on that one
next week.

Regards,

Edward
