intliz: Initialization of Block-Basu Bivariate Pareto (BBBVPA) distribution

Description

Return initial choice parameters of BBBVPA distribution.

Usage

intliz(
  data,
  ini.run = 100,
  tol.ini = 0.001,
  proc = "ML",
  intv.s1 = c(0, 5),
  intv.s2 = c(0, 5),
  intv.a0 = c(0, 5),
  intv.a1 = c(0, 5),
  intv.a2 = c(0, 5),
  ...
)

Value

numeric vector.

Arguments

data

bivariate observations.

ini.run

number of random initializations.

tol.ini

intv.s1

interval for random initialization of \(\sigma_1\).

intv.s2

interval for random initialization of \(\sigma_2\).

intv.a0

interval for random initialization of \(\alpha_0\).

intv.a1

interval for random initialization of \(\alpha_1\).

intv.a2

interval for random initialization of \(\alpha_2\).

...

further arguments to pass to estimates.
