Dirichlet | R Documentation |
Functions to compute the density of a Dirichlet distribution and to generate random realizations from such a distribution.
dDirichlet (x, alpha, log=FALSE)
rDirichlet (n, alpha)
alpha |
Shape parameter vector. |
x |
Vector of the same length as |
n |
Number of realizations (vectors) to generate. |
log |
Logical value. TRUE if computing the log density. Default is FALSE. |
rDirichlet
returns a vector of the same length as alpha
if n
=1, or a matrix with each row being an independent realization otherwise.
Audrey Q. Fu coded dDirichlet
.
The code for rDirichlet
is taken from a similar function in R package gregmisc
by Gregory R. Warnes. His code was based on code posted by Ben Bolker to R-News on 15 Dec 2000. See documentation in gregmisc for further information.
x <- rDirichlet (5, rep (0.5, 3))
dDirichlet (x[1, ], rep (0.5, 3))
