Generating Random Data From A Lognormal Mixture Model
Description
The function rmixlnorm
generates random data from a lognormal mixture model.
Usage
rmixlnorm(n, pi, mu, sd)
Arguments
n |
a positive integer specifying the number of observations we want to generate from the mixture model |
pi |
a numeric vector for the proportion of each component |
mu |
a numeric vector for the mean of each component |
sd |
a numeric vector for the standard deviation of each component |
Details
The number of random data from each component n_0
(a vector) is generated from a multinomial
distribution Multinom(n, pi)
. Then the random data from each component is generated with
the sample sized specified in n_0
and parameters of lognormal distributions specified in
mu
and sd
.
Value
The function rmixlnorm
returns a numeric vector of random data from the specified lognormal mixture model.
