The method compares R-squared values from ordinary least squares fits across three transformed coordinate systems. The coordinate transformation with the strongest linear relationship identifies the closest survivorship regime. The framework identifies the closest tested pattern rather than proving empirical data exactly match one pure model. The framework tests whether survivorship data best match aging, memoryless extinction, or improving survival with age.
