pcd_dist_name

Get distribution function cdf or pdf name

Provides functions for working with primary
event censored distributions and 'Stan' implementations for use in Bayesian
modeling. Primary event censored distributions are useful for modeling
delayed reporting scenarios in epidemiology and other fields (Charniga et
al. (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2405.08841>). It also provides support for
arbitrary delay distributions, a range of common primary distributions, and
allows for truncation and secondary event censoring to be accounted for
(Park et al. (2024) <doi:10.1101/2024.01.12.24301247>). A subset of
common distributions also have analytical solutions implemented, allowing
for faster computation. In addition, it provides multiple methods for
fitting primary event censored distributions to data via optional
dependencies.
