wg {ig} | R Documentation |
Compute the weights in the likelihood fucntion of the inverse Gaussian type distribution given by: w=g'(u)/g(u), where g is the kernel of the pdf of the symmetrical distribution.
wg(u, kernel, nu = 1)
u |
Vector of values. |
kernel |
Kernel of the pdf of the associated symmetrical distribution by means of which the IGTD is obtained. |
nu |
Additional parameter of the IGTD when the t kernel is used. |
