UnivarMixingDistribution

From distr v2.6 by Peter Ruckdeschel

Generating function for Class "UnivarMixingDistribution"

Generates an object of class "UnivarMixingDistribution".

Keywords: distribution, list

Usage

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

Arguments

...: Objects of class "UnivariateDistribution" (or subclasses)
Dlist: an optional list or object of class "UnivarDistrList"; if not missing it is appended to argument ...; this way UnivarMixingDistribution may also be called with a list (or "UnivarDistrList"-object) as argument as suggested in an e-mail by Krunoslav Sever (thank you!)
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?

Details

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

Value

"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.

Examples

mylist <- UnivarMixingDistribution(Binom(3,.3), Dirac(2), Norm(), 
          mixCoeff=c(1/4,1/5,11/20))
