com.loglikelihood: Computes Log-Likelihood of COM-Poisson

Description

Given a set of data, computes the log-likelihood of the data under the COM-Poisson distribution for values of the parameters.

Usage

com.loglikelihood(x, lambda, nu)

Arguments

x
matrix of count data
lambda
value of lambda parameter
nu
value of nu parameter

Value

The log-likelihood of the data.

Details

The argument x should consist of a matrix where the first column is the level and the second column is the count for the corresponding level.
