abic.gen.exp: Akaike information criterion (AIC) and Bayesian information criterion (BIC) for a sample from Generalized Exponential distribution

Description

The function abic.gen.exp() gives the loglikelihood, AIC and BIC values assuming an Generalized Exponential distribution with parameters alpha and lambda. The function is based on the invariance property of the MLE.

Usage

abic.gen.exp(x, alpha.est, lambda.est)

Value

The function abic.gen.exp() gives the loglikelihood, AIC and BIC values.

Arguments

x

vector of observations

alpha.est

estimate of the parameter alpha

lambda.est

estimate of the parameter lambda
