Hi BIOMODers,<br>
<br>
I run BIOMOD for some species and I obtained these results which are a
bit difficult to interpret to me:<br>
<br>
I am checking AUC and TSS model by model and comparing it to the
Ensemble modeling approach:<br>

I am producing an ensemble forecasting giving weights according to the
TSS statistic (decay=1.6). For each model I used the cross-validation
result out of Evaluation.results.Kappa.<br>
Is it possible to obtain a TSS statistic even much better than the best
model and the best run of the best model (according to TSS)?<br>
<br>
Thanx !<br>
