RE: Akaike information criterion

From: "Gibiansky, Ekaterina" <gibianskye@globomax.com> Subject: RE: Akaike information criterion Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2001 10:58:21 -0400 I used SBC for model selection in NONMEM, and actually compared it with AIC, not in the simulation studies though, but with actual data. With large data sets AIC tends to choose overestimated models, keeping many more covariates, than SBC. SBC seemed to perform well.
