Here we are I presume only worried about strong reflections lost behind an ice ring. At least that is where the discussion began. Isnt the best approach t this problem to use integration software which attempts to give a measurement, albeit with a high error estimate? The discussion has

Dear Ethan, Thankyou for the reference, but actually it's the wrong paper and anyway my only contribution to the 'free lunch algorithm' was to name it (in the title of the paper by Uson et al., Acta Cryst. (2007) D63, 1069-1074). By that time the method was already being used in ACORN and by the

If the model is really bad and sigmaA is estimated properly, then sigmaA will be close to zero so that D (sigmaA times a scale factor) will be close to zero. So in the limit of a completely useless model, the two methods of map calculation converge. Regards, Randy Read On 11 Oct 2011, at

In the limit yes. however limit is when we do not have solution, i.e. when model errors are very large. In the limit map coefficients will be 0 even for 2mFo-DFc maps. In refinement we have some model. At the moment we have choice between 0 and DFc. 0 is not the best estimate as Ed rightly

Best way would be to generate from probability distributions derived after refinement, but it has a problem that you need to integrate over all errors. Another, simpler way would be generate using Wilson distribution multiple times and do refinement multiple times and average results. I have
