findA: Estimate parameter for a given beta KL divergence and UMP
test
Description
Computes the first parameter value for a given KL
divergence and UMP test.
Usage
findA(w, logd = 0, ...)
Value
A real value.
Arguments
w
UMP parameter between 0 and 1
logd
numeric value, the log KL divergence
...
additional arguments to uniroot
Author

Details
This function uses uniroot to invert the beta divergence
for a given w and return the a value which gives that beta
divergence given the UMP parameter w. The search interval is
specified internally, so should not be passed in using additional
argument.
