aBIC: Bayesian information criterion.
bLL: log-likelihood (the smaller the absolute value of LL, the better the model fit).
cAIC: Akaike information criterion.
dNpar: number of estimated parameters.
eBVR: bivariate residual.
fEntropy R2: values >0.8 indicate high degree of separation between classes.
