dGHGBB: Gaussian Hypergeometric Generalized Beta Binomial Distribution

Description

These functions provide the ability for generating probability function values and cumulative probability function values for the Gaussian Hypergeometric Generalized Beta Binomial distribution.

Usage

dGHGBB(x,n,a,b,c)

Value

The output of dGHGBB gives a list format consisting

pdf probability function values in vector form.

mean mean of Gaussian Hypergeometric Generalized Beta Binomial Distribution.

var variance of Gaussian Hypergeometric Generalized Beta Binomial Distribution.

over.dis.para over dispersion value of Gaussian Hypergeometric Generalized Beta Binomial Distribution.

Arguments

x

vector of binomial random variables.

n

single value for no of binomial trials.

a

single value for shape parameter alpha value representing a.

b

single value for shape parameter beta value representing b.

c

single value for shape parameter lambda value representing c.

Details

Mixing Gaussian Hypergeometric Generalized Beta distribution with Binomial distribution will create the Gaussian Hypergeometric Generalized Beta Binomial distribution. The probability function and cumulative probability function can be constructed and are denoted below.

The cumulative probability function is the summation of probability function values.

$$P_{GHGBB}(x)=\frac{1}{2F1(-n,a;-b-n+1;c)} {n \choose x} \frac{B(x+a,n-x+b)}{B(a,b+n)}(c^x) $$ $$a,b,c > 0$$ $$x = 0,1,2,...n$$ $$n = 1,2,3,...$$

The mean, variance and over dispersion are denoted as $$E_{GHGBB}[x]= nE_{GHGBeta} $$ $$Var_{GHGBB}[x]= nE_{GHGBeta}(1-E_{GHGBeta})+ n(n-1)Var_{GHGBeta} $$ $$over dispersion= \frac{var_{GHGBeta}}{E_{GHGBeta}(1-E_{GHGBeta})} $$

Defined as \(B(a,b)\) is the beta function. Defined as \(2F1(a,b;c;d)\) is the Gaussian Hypergeometric function

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