Table 1. Model comparison shows that the three-change-point model describes the data best.

Leave-one-out (LOO) cross-validation for main models (SIR with weekend correction) and a different number of change points. Lower LOO-scores represent a better match between model and data.

Model LOO-score Effective number
of parameters (pLOO)
zero change points 927±9 8.31
one change points 819±16 13.46
two change points 796±17 12.53
three change points 787±17 13.42
