- Description:
- The following table is a collection of studies (not all of which are 3rd party) which quantify the accuracy of PlantPredict's entire performance model chain, as opposed to the individual models within the chain.
- Metrics:
- MBD: Mean Bias Difference
- MxD: Maximum Difference
- STD: 1 Sigma standard deviation
