  1. RMSEs and MAEs of the patient trajectories computed with the individual patient parameters are each calculated for the whole data set with the standard deviation in brackets. Coefficients of variation (CV) are calculated as \(\sqrt{\mathrm{exp}({\upomega }^{2})-1}\) with \({\upomega }^{2}\) as the variance of the interindividual variability estimated by NONMEM, and the 95% CI being calculated accordingly.
