Arguments
...
Other argument passed to dtn.mix
, most notably, the approximaiton
argument Value
- A function of one argument (
x
), i.e., the marginal density function.
Details
When obj$data$df
are all equal to each other, a single marginal density is clearly defined for all obj$data$tstat
. Otherwise,
the marginal density is defined as a discrete mixture of densities, one for each distinct degree of freedom,
with mixing proportion based on that of obj$data$df
