eval.estimation: Parameter Estimation Evaluation.

Description

A function to evaluate the parameter estimation function.

Usage

eval.estimation(rdist, edist, n = 20, rep.num = 1000, params,
  method = "numerical.MLE")

Arguments

rdist

Random variable generating function.

edist

Parameter estimation function.

n

Sample size.

rep.num

Number of replicates.

params

True parameters of the distribution.

method

Estimation method.

Value

• A list containing the mean and sd of the estimated parameters. na.cont returns the number of "na"s that appeared in the parameter estimation.

Examples

eval.estimation(rdist=rNormal,edist=eNormal,n = 100, rep.num = 50,
params = list(mean = 1,sd = 5))
