lcd.eval {LogConcDEAD}R Documentation

Evaluate the log-concave MLE at a point

Description

Function to evaluate the log-concave MLE at a point

Usage

lcd.eval(points, out, uselog=FALSE)

Arguments

points Point (or matrix of points) at which MLE should be evaluated
out Object of class LogConcDEAD (output from lcd.mle)
uselog Logical for whether the estimator should be calculated on the log scale

Details

The function is evaluated using the special structure of the MLE. The appropriate triangulation is returned by lcd.mle along with the equation of the hyperplanes defining the surface of the log MLE.

Value

The MLE (or log MLE) evaluated at the point.
