Normality Index of Ventricular Contraction Based on a Statistical Model from FADS

Table 2

Characteristics of the models that best describe the contraction pattern for the six defined groups.

Model	Type	Number of components	BIC	Log-likelihood
1	VVV	5	34258.15	16928.97
2	VVV	5	34094.83	16847.28
3	VEV	8	34502.55	16984.84
4	VEV	6	33676.04	16597.08
5	VVV	5	32863.10	16232.13
6	VEV	8	34502.55	16984.84

BIC: bayes Information criterion, Log-likelihood: logarithm of the likelihood value, VEV: Ellipsoidal, same shape, variable orientation; VVV: Ellipsoidal, varying volume, shape, and orientation.
