twCoefLogitnormCi
Description
Calculates mu and sigma of the logitnormal distribution from lower and upper quantile, i.e. confidence interval.
Usage
twCoefLogitnormCi(lower, upper, perc = 0.975,
sigmaFac = qnorm(perc), isTransScale = FALSE)
Arguments
lower |
value at the lower quantile, i.e. practical minimum |
upper |
value at the upper quantile, i.e. practical maximum |
perc |
numeric vector: the probability for which the quantile was specified |
sigmaFac |
sigmaFac = 2 is 95% sigmaFac = 2.6 is 99% interval |
isTransScale |
if true lower and upper are already on logit scale |
Value
named numeric vector: mu and sigma parameter of the logitnormal distribution.
