 MEANING: Final estimates of parameters THETA, OMEGA, SIGMA
 CONTEXT: NONMEM output

 DISCUSSION:
 A  page  with the title FINAL PARAMETER ESTIMATE is printed as part of
 every NONMEM output.

 If the Estimation Step was NOT run, then the values  printed  are  the
 initial parameter estimates specified for the problem.

 If  the Estimation Step WAS run, then the values printed are the final
 parameter estimates.

 These estimates of parameters are used by NONMEM to compute the objec-
 tive  function  value printed on the page with title "MINIMUM VALUE OF
 OBJECTIVE FUNCTION" and to compute predicted  values  for  Tables  and
 Scatterplots.

 This  example is from a run involving single-subject data, so there is
 no SIGMA matrix.

 With NONMEM 7.2 and higher, the correlation matrix is included.  It is
 computed  from  the  covariance  matrix, whether or not the Estimation
 step is not run.

 (See initial parameter estimate).

 With NONMEM 7.3 and higher, the $THETAR record may be used  to  trans- |
 form  final  estimates of THETA before they are reported in the NONMEM |
 output.                                                                |
 (See $thetar).
