This program uses simple search to find the upper 95% Wilks confidence limits based on the log likelihood function supplied.
1 |
NPmle |
a vector containing the two NPMLEs: beta1 hat and beta2 hat. |
ConfInt |
a vector of length 3. Approximate length of the 3 confidence intervals: beta1, beta2 and lambda. They are used as initial search step size. |
LogLikfn |
a function that computes the loglikelihood. |
Pfun |
a function that takes the input of 3 parameter values (beta1, beta2 and Mulam) and returns a parameter that we wish to find the confidence Interval Upper Value. |
dataMat |
a matrix. |
level |
Significance level. Default to 3.84 (95 percent). |
This is a sister function to findU3( ). A bit faster. Use about half the time compared to findU3().
Basically we repeatedly testing the value of the parameter, until we find those which the -2 log likelihood value is equal to 3.84 (or other level, if set differently).
A list with the following components:
Upper |
the upper confidence bound. |
maxParameterNloglik |
Final values of the 4 parameters, and the log likelihood. |

## For example g(t) = I[ t <= 2.0 ]; look inside myLLfun().
