Log Hazard Function for a Laplace Process

Description

These functions provide information about the Laplace distribution with location parameter equal to m and dispersion equal to s: log hazard. (See 'rmutil' for the d/p/q/r boxcox functions density, cumulative distribution, quantiles, and random generation).

The Laplace distribution has density

f(y) = \frac{\exp(-abs(y-\mu)/\sigma)}{(2\sigma)}

where \mu is the location parameter of the distribution and \sigma is the dispersion.

Usage

hlaplace(y, m=0, s=1)

Arguments

y

vector of responses.

m

vector of location parameters.

s

vector of dispersion parameters.
