In contrast, the asymptotic distribution of the scoring rule ratio statisis a linear combination of independent chi-square random variables with coefficients related to the eigenvalues of the matrix J(θ)K(θ) −1 (Dawid et al., 2016) . The robust fits (Tsallis estimates and 95% confidence intervals) of the parameters e (inflection point) and d (upper asymptote) for the models are summarized in Tables 1 and 2 for DD and ICU, respectively. ./cache/cord-350240-bmppif8g.txt ./txt/cord-350240-bmppif8g.txt
