ParamFamily: Generating function for ParamFamily-class

Description

Generates an object of class "ParamFamily".

Usage

ParamFamily(name, distribution = Norm(), distrSymm, main = 0, 
            nuisance, trafo, param, props = character(0))

Arguments

name

character string: name of family

distribution

object of class "Distribution": member of the family

distrSymm

object of class "DistributionSymmetry": symmetry of distribution.

main

numeric vector: main parameter

nuisance

numeric vector: nuisance parameter

trafo

matrix: transformation of the parameters

param

object of class "ParamFamParameter": parameter of the family

props

character vector: properties of the family

Value

• Object of class "ParamFamily"

concept

parametric family

Details

If name is missing, the default "parametric family of probability measures" is used. In case distrSymm is missing it is set to NoSymmetry(). If param is missing, the parameter is created via main, nuisance and trafo as described in ParamFamParameter.
