EstMLECOMPBin: Estimating the probability of success and v parameter for COM Poisson Binomial Distribution

Description

The function will estimate the probability of success and v parameter using the maximum log likelihood method for the COM Poisson Binomial distribution when the binomial random variables and corresponding frequencies are given.

Usage

EstMLECOMPBin(x,freq,p,v)

Arguments

x

vector of binomial random variables.

freq

vector of frequencies.

p

single value for probability of success.

v

single value for v.

Value

EstMLECOMPBin here is used as a input parameter for the mle2 function of bbmle package therefore output is of class of mle2.

Details

$$x = 0,1,2,...$$ $$freq \ge 0$$ $$0 < p < 1$$ $$-\infty < v < +\infty$$

NOTE : If input parameters are not in given domain conditions necessary error messages will be provided to go further.
