lbb {gbs} | R Documentation |
This function computes the second analytical derivative of the loglikelihood with respect to β of the GBSD.
lbb(theta, x, nu = 1.0, kernel = "normal")
theta |
Vector of parameters {alpha} and {beta}. |
x |
Vector of observations. |
nu |
Shape parameter corresponding to the degrees of freedom of the t distribution. In the case of the Laplace, logistic, normal kernels, nu can be fixed at the value 1.0 since this parameter is not involved in these kernels. |
kernel |
Kernel of the pdf of the associated symmetrical distribution by means of which the GBSD is obtained. The kernels: Laplace, logistic, normal and t are available. |
lbb()
return the second analytical derivative of the loglikelihood
with respect to βof the GBSD.
