GEOM: Geometric distribution for fitting a GAMLSS model

Description

The functions GEOMo() and GEOM() define two parametrizations of the geometric distribution. The geometric distribution is a one parameter distribution, for a gamlss.family object to be used in GAMLSS fitting using the function gamlss(). The mean of GEOM() is equal to the parameter mu. The functions dGEOM, pGEOM, qGEOM and rGEOM define the density, distribution function, quantile function and random generation for the GEOM parameterization of the Geometric distribution.

Usage

GEOM(mu.link = "log")
dGEOM(x, mu = 2, log = FALSE)
pGEOM(q, mu = 2, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
qGEOM(p, mu = 2, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
rGEOM(n, mu = 2)
GEOMo(mu.link = "logit")
dGEOMo(x, mu = 0.5, log = FALSE)
pGEOMo(q, mu = 0.5, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
qGEOMo(p, mu = 0.5, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
rGEOMo(n, mu = 0.5)

Value

returns a gamlss.family object which can be used to fit a Geometric distribution in the gamlss() function.

Details

The parameterization of the GAMLSS geometric distribution in the function GEOM is:

$$f(y|\mu) = \mu^y/(\mu+1)^{y+1}$$ for \(y = 0,1,2,3,...\) and \(\mu>0\), see pp 472-473 of Rigby et al. (2019). Note that in this parametrization \(E(y)=\mu\).

The parameterization of the original geometric distribution, GEOMo is $$f(y|\mu) = (1-\mu)^y \mu$$ for \(y = 0,1,2,3,...\) and \(\mu>0\), see pp 473-474 of Rigby et al. (2019). In this parametrization \(E(y)=(1-\mu)\mu^{-1}\).
