identifyExpPars {bootComb} | R Documentation |
Determine the parameters of the best-fit exponential distribution for a given confidence interval.
Description
Finds the best-fit exponential distribution parameter for a given confidence interval and returns the rate parameter.
Usage
identifyExpPars(qLow, qUpp, alpha = 0.05, initPars = 1, maxiter = 1000)
Arguments
qLow |
The observed lower quantile. |
qUpp |
The observed upper quantile. |
alpha |
The confidence level; i.e. the desired coverage is 1-alpha. Defaults to 0.05. |
initPars |
A single number giving the initial parameter value to start the optimisation; defaults to 1. |
maxiter |
Maximum number of iterations for |
Value
A single number giving the rate parameter for use with rexp/dexp/pexp/qexp.
