distr (version 2.0.1)

UnivarMixingDistribution: Generating function for Class "UnivarMixingDistribution"

Description

Generates an object of class "UnivarMixingDistribution".

Usage

UnivarMixingDistribution(..., mixCoeff, 
                                withSimplify = getdistrOption("simplifyD"))

Arguments

...
Objects of class "UnivariateDistribution" (or subclasses)
mixCoeff
Objects of class "numeric" : a vector of probabilities for the mixing components (must be of same length as arguments in ...).
withSimplify
"logical": shall the return value be piped through a call to simplifyD?

Value

  • Object of class "UnivarMixingDistribution", or if argument withSimplify is TRUE and the resulting object would have one mixing component with probability (almost) 1, UnivarMixingDistribution will return this component.

concept

  • multivariate distribution
  • S4 distribution class
  • generating function

Details

If mixCoeff is missing, all elements in ... are equally weighted.
