The Odd Weibull Distribution

Description

Density, distribution function, quantile function, random generation and hazard function for the Odd Weibull distribution with parameters mu, sigma and nu.

Usage

dOW(x, mu, sigma, nu, log = FALSE)

pOW(q, mu, sigma, nu, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

qOW(p, mu, sigma, nu, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

rOW(n, mu, sigma, nu)

hOW(x, mu, sigma, nu)

Arguments

x, q

vector of quantiles.

mu

parameter one.

sigma

parameter two.

nu

parameter three.

log, log.p

logical; if TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p).

lower.tail

logical; if TRUE (default), probabilities are P[T <= t], otherwise, P[T > t].

p

vector of probabilities.

n

number of observations.

Details

The Odd Weibull with parameters mu, sigma and nu has density given by

f(x) = \left( \frac{\sigma\nu}{x} \right) (\mu x)^\sigma e^{(\mu x)^\sigma} \left(e^{(\mu x)^{\sigma}}-1\right)^{\nu-1} \left[ 1 + \left(e^{(\mu x)^{\sigma}}-1\right)^\nu \right]^{-2}

for x > 0.

Value

dOW gives the density, pOW gives the distribution function, qOW gives the quantile function, rOW generates random deviates and hOW gives the hazard function.
