Calculate Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) for Hypergeometric Distribution

Description

This function estimates the parameters m, n, and k of a hypergeometric distribution from the provided data and then calculates the AIC value based on the fitted distribution.

Usage

util_hypergeometric_aic(.x)

Arguments

.x

A numeric vector containing the data to be fitted to a hypergeometric distribution.

Details

This function calculates the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) for a hypergeometric distribution fitted to the provided data.

This function fits a hypergeometric distribution to the provided data. It estimates the parameters m, n, and k of the hypergeometric distribution from the data. Then, it calculates the AIC value based on the fitted distribution.

Initial parameter estimates: The function does not estimate parameters; they are directly calculated from the data.

Optimization method: Since the parameters are directly calculated from the data, no optimization is needed.

Goodness-of-fit: While AIC is a useful metric for model comparison, it's recommended to also assess the goodness-of-fit of the chosen model using visualization and other statistical tests.

Value

The AIC value calculated based on the fitted hypergeometric distribution to the provided data.
