DiscreteMVDistribution: Generating function for DiscreteMVDistribution-class

Description

Generates an object of class "DiscreteMVDistribution".

Usage

DiscreteMVDistribution(supp, prob)
  DiscreteMVDistribution(supp)

Arguments

supp

numeric matrix whose rows form the support of the discrete multivariate distribution.

prob

vector of probability weights for the elements of supp.

Value

• Object of class "DiscreteMVDistribution"

synopsis

DiscreteMVDistribution(supp, prob)

concept

• multivariate distribution
• discrete distribution

Details

Identical rows are collapsed to unique support values. If prob is missing, all elements in supp are equally weighted.

Examples

# Dirac-measure at (0,0,0)
D1 <- DiscreteMVDistribution(supp = c(0,0,0))
support(D1)

# simple discrete distribution
D2 <- DiscreteMVDistribution(supp = matrix(c(0,1,0,2,2,1,1,0), ncol=2), 
                prob = c(0.3, 0.2, 0.2, 0.3))
support(D2)
r(D2)(10)
