hyperdirichlet (version 1.5-1)

hyperdirichlet-class: Class ``hyperdirichlet''

Description

A generalization of the Dirichlet distribution

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form hyperdirichlet(...).

Slots

.Data:

Numeric vector of length a power of two, holding the parameters (sic; not the powers) of the distribution

NC:

The normalizing constant, if known

pnames:

Character vector holding the names of the columns

validated:

Boolean, indicating whether the distribution is known to be normalizable

Methods

NC

signature(object = "hyperdirichlet"): normalizing constant

params

signature(object = "hyperdirichlet"): accessor method for parameters

pnames

signature(object = "hyperdirichlet"): accessor method for pnames

validated

signature(x = "hyperdirichlet"): returns TRUE if the distribution is known to be normalized

pnames<-

signature(object = "hyperdirichlet"): set method for pnames

dim

signature(x = "hyperdirichlet"): Dimensionality of the distribution

mean

signature(object = "hyperdirichlet"): returns the mean of the distribution

as.hyperdirichlet

signature(object = "hyperdirichlet"): Coerce to hyperdirichlet form

head

signature(object = "hyperdirichlet"): head method; prints the first few lines of the parameters

tail

signature(object = "hyperdirichlet"): head method; prints the last few lines of the parameters

show

signature(object = "hyperdirichlet"): prints the object
