eDist {ExtDist}

S3 methods for manipulating eDist objects.

Description

S3 methods for manipulating eDist objects

Usage

## S3 method for class 'eDist'
logLik(object, ...)

## S3 method for class 'eDist'
AIC(object, ..., k = 2)

AICc(object)

## S3 method for class 'eDist'
AICc(object, ...)

## S3 method for class 'eDist'
vcov(object, ..., corr = FALSE)

BIC(object)

## S3 method for class 'eDist'
BIC(object, ...)

MDL(object)

## S3 method for class 'eDist'
MDL(object, ...)

## S3 method for class 'eDist'
print(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'eDist'
plot(x, ...)

Arguments

object

x An object of class eDist, usually the output of a parameter estimation function.

...

Additional parameters

k

numeric, The penalty per parameter to be used; the default k = 2 is the classical AIC.

corr

logical; should vcov() return correlation matrix (instead of variance-covariance matrix).

x

A list to be returned as class eDist.

plot

logical; if TRUE histogram, P-P and Q-Q plot of the distribution returned else only parameter estimation is returned.

Note

The MDL only works for parameter estimation by numerical maximum likelihood.
