Statistics of reflections

Near the top of CORRECT.LP we find:

 531781 REFLECTIONS ON FILE "INTEGRATE.HKL"
      0 CORRUPTED REFLECTION RECORDS (IGNORED)
      0 REFLECTIONS INCOMPLETE OR OUTSIDE IMAGE RANGE       1 ...    1799
      0 OVERLOADED REFLECTIONS (IGNORED)
     81 REFLECTIONS OUTSIDE ACCEPTED RESOLUTION RANGES
               OR TOO CLOSE TO ROTATION AXIS (IGNORED)
 531700 REFLECTIONS ACCEPTED

Statistics of observations

XDS, like SCALA and d*TREK, gives statistics about unaveraged and averaged quantities, but in different tables. The unaveraged values are in a table that is fine-grained in terms of resolution, at the beginning of CORRECT.LP. The Sigma values in that table are corrected to match the RMS scatter.

The table that has information about the averaged data (suitably weighted) is repeated several times. It is less fine-grained in resolution (9 shells, and overall). [if a user wants this table in fine-grained form, s/he can use XSCALE].

The way the tables are printed is the same for both types of tables: at first the definitions of the quantities in the table are given, and then the table itself is printed.

Specifically, the heading of the table which talks about the unaveraged data looks like this:

 I/Sigma  = mean intensity/Sigma of a reflection in shell
 Chi2    = goodness of fit between sample variances of
            symmetry-related intensities and their errors
            (Chi2 = 1 for perfect agreement)
 R-FACTOR
 observed = (SUM(ABS(I(h,i)-I(h))))/(SUM(I(h,i)))
 expected = expected R-FACTOR derived from Sigma(I)

  NUMBER  = number of reflections in resolution shell
            used for calculation of R-FACTOR
 ACCEPTED = number of accepted reflections
 REJECTED = number of rejected reflections (MISFITS),
            recognized by comparison with symmetry-related
            reflections.

and then the table itself is:

RESOLUTION RANGE  I/Sigma  Chi2  R-FACTOR  R-FACTOR  NUMBER ACCEPTED REJECTED
                                  observed  expected

  48.268  17.853     9.63   0.97      5.06      6.10     865     868      44
  17.853  13.079    10.02   0.97      5.22      6.14    1301    1305      81
  13.079  10.812     9.83   1.10      5.56      5.94    1374    1388      99
  10.812   9.423     9.88   1.09      5.32      6.03    1820    1825     108
   9.423   8.460     9.56   1.07      6.03      6.21    2087    2101     167

.... (many resolution shells deleted for brevity)

Statistics of unique reflections

Later tables talk about the averaged intensities:


R-FACTOR
observed = (SUM(ABS(I(h,i)-I(h))))/(SUM(I(h,i)))
expected = expected R-FACTOR derived from Sigma(I)

COMPARED = number of reflections used for calculating R-FACTOR
I/SIGMA  = mean of intensity/Sigma(I) of unique reflections
           (after merging symmetry-related observations)
Sigma(I) = standard deviation of reflection intensity I
           estimated from sample statistics

R-meas   = redundancy independent R-factor (intensities)
           Diederichs & Karplus (1997), Nature Struct. Biol. 4, 269-275.

CC(1/2)  = percentage of correlation between intensities from
           random half-datasets. Correlation significant at
           the 0.1% level is marked by an asterisk.
           Karplus & Diederichs (2012), Science 336, 1030-33
Anomal   = percentage of correlation between random half-sets
 Corr      of anomalous intensity differences. Correlation
           significant at the 0.1% level is marked.
SigAno   = mean anomalous difference in units of its estimated
           standard deviation (|F(+)-F(-)|/Sigma). F(+), F(-)
           are structure factor estimates obtained from the
           merged intensity observations in each parity class.
 Nano    = Number of unique reflections used to calculate
           Anomal_Corr & SigAno. At least two observations
           for each (+ and -) parity are required.

and the table itself is

      NOTE:      Friedel pairs are treated as different reflections.

NUMBER OF ACCEPTED OBSERVATIONS                     516002
NUMBER OF UNIQUE ACCEPTED REFLECTIONS               173398

Why is there a discrepancy between "total 515976 173389" versus "NUMBER OF ACCEPTED OBSERVATIONS 516002", and "NUMBER OF UNIQUE ACCEPTED REFLECTIONS 173398" ?? The reason is that the higher numbers include even those reflections with I<3*sigma(I), whereas the numbers in the table refer only to those reflections which should be used downstream (for phasing and refinement). Indeed, XDSCONV filters out observations with I<-3*sigma(I).

At the bottom of CORRECT.LP we find:

NUMBER OF UNIQUE ALIEN REFLECTIONS WITH A Z-SCORE ABOVE LIMIT       162
(ALIENS ABOVE LIMIT (REJECT_ALIEN=      20.0) ARE MARKED INVALID)

NUMBER OF REFLECTION RECORDS ON OUTPUT FILE "XDS_ASCII.HKL"      531700
NUMBER OF ACCEPTED OBSERVATIONS (INCLUDING SYSTEMATIC ABSENCES)  515712
NUMBER OF REJECTED MISFITS & ALIENS (marked by -1*SIGMA(IOBS))    15988

The file XDS_ASCII.HKL actually has all 531700 reflections.
