Mathematical Modeling
Goodness-of-fit refers to a statistical measure that assesses how well a model's predicted values match the observed data. It indicates the degree to which the model can accurately represent the underlying process generating the data, helping in evaluating and comparing different models. A higher goodness-of-fit means that the model is a better representation of the data, leading to more reliable conclusions drawn from the analysis.
