REVIEW analyzes the agreement between triplet and/or quartet structure invariant relationships and a given phase set. It is intended primarily for testing and aiding in the development of direct methods software, but may also have uses for examining invariant relationships of unsuccessful solution runs. Agreement between the specified phase set and the invariant relationships is measured with a range of parameters.

Introduction

REVIEW is intended principally to test and aid in the development of methods using structure invariant relationships. It applies a specified set of phases to triplet and/or quartet invariants (see the GENSIN documentation for definitions) and provides information on both the individual and bulk agreement of the phase relationships. Agreement parameters are based on a range of measures including the frequency of invariant violations and the root mean square deviation of invariant estimates from the specified phase set. A plot of ψ difference (between "found" and "expected") versus the probability factors A (for triplets), and B and XVsum (for quartets) may be printed in terms of the population of invariants.

Fragment contributions to the estimate of ψ may be included in or excluded from this analysis.

The phase set used in this analysis is extracted from the input bdf. These phases may have their origins in the calculations FC or CRYLSQ or GENTAN. Input phases are applied to each structure invariant relationship in order to calculate the values of and . The phase of each generator reflection is then estimated from these relationships and compared to the input phase set in two ways. The first is the frequency of invariant violations. A violation is said to occur if the ψ value of an individual invariant relationship exceeds the value of ψ "expected" from probability considerations by more than π/2. This frequency is measured for each generator reflection and the phase set as a whole. It provides general measure of the "correspondence" between the input phases and estimated phases.

A second method of measuring the correspondence between the input phases and the phases estimated from invariant relationships is based on the root mean square deviation between the ψ values and their expected values. This value is weighted according to the probability factors A or B. The general form of the weighted rmsd value is,

Relationships with Restricted ψ Values

Just as symmetry can restrict the phase values of a reflection to one of two values (e.g., 0 and π for centrosymmetric space groups), it can also restrict the value of ψ for a structure invariant relationship. This is of particular significance when the restriction requires ψ to be non-zero. Such occurrences in noncentrosymmetric space groups can be identified in this analysis. The user may exclude or include non-zero restricted ψ values from the agreement parameters (see field 7 of the REVIEW control line).

Expected ψ for Negative Quartets

Negative quartets are those quartets with the XVSUM less than XSLO (see GENSIN description for details). The expected value of ψ4 for negative quartets will vary according to whether fragment information (and therefore QPSI values) are applied. If fragment QPSI values are not applied, the expected value of ψ4 is π; otherwise, it is likely (depending on the precision of the fragment information) to be zero.

Printed Output

Four levels of printout are available with REVIEW. These are the pset, gsum, plot, and sinv options in fields 1 to 4 of the list control line.

pset

This option prints the input phase set, generator number, h, k, l, E, σ(E), and phase angle. These are output three reflections to a line.

gsum

This option prints for each generator the following summary.

NGEN generator number

H K L reflection indices

|E| E - magnitude

SIGE error in E-magnitude

PHI -RST restricted phase (NR=no restriction)

PHI -INP input phase

PHI - T3 phase estimated from triplet invariants

This option uses one line per generator

plot

This option prints a population distribution of invariants for ψ difference versus the probability factors A and B. For quartets, ψ difference versus the cross vector sum XVSUM.

sinv

This option prints for each structure invariant the following data,

PFAC probability factor (A or B)

SHF phase shift due to translational symmetry

N2 signed generator number of the 2nd invariant vector

N3 signed generator number of the 3rd invariant vector

N4 signed generator number of the 4th invariant vector

XVS cross-vector sum for the quartet relationship (XVSUM)

PSI -ACT actual invariant ψ calculated from input phases

PSI -RST restricted invariant ψ

PSI -FRG fragment estimate of invariant ψ

PSI -DIF ψ difference(=PSI ACT - PSI FRG)

PSI -RMS rms ψ accumulated from differences

ALPHA α from tangent components - running average

ALPHA/EAL ratio of α to expected α

PHI -ACT actual input phase

PHI -EST estimated phase from this invariant

PHI -DIF difference between PHI ACT - PHI EST

PHI -TAN phase from tangent formula - running average

The output is one line per invariant. Because of this caution should be exercised in order to save paper. The default listing will be for generator numbers 1-10 (see Example section to control this listing).

It is possible to list only the invariants which are violated (i.e., |ψ-<ψ>| > π/2) regardless of the list line arguments. This is done by entering reset psta 5

Definition of Terms

ALPHAis the "observed" α, and defined as

where S and C are the numerator and denominator of the weighted tangent formula (see GENTAN description for details).

EAL is the "expected" α for the invariant phase, and is given by the modified Bessel function. (A)

PHI -TAN is the phase estimated from the application of the weighted tangent formula. This is a progressive average. The angle output modulo is 360o.

ABS FOM is the absolute figure-of-merit as defined in GENTAN.

DPHI is the mean difference between the input phase and the phase estimated from the structure invariant relationship. The mean is taken over the invariants in the phase set.
