Evaluating marginal and conditional predictions of taper models in the absence of calibration data

A systematic evaluation of nonlinear fixed- and mixed-effects taper models in volume prediction was conducted. Among 33 taper equations, the best 1- to 10-parameter fixed-effects models according to fitting statistics were further analysed by comparing their predictions against the modelling data an...
