data |
A matrix with two columns, consisting of left and right endpoints of the interval data |
factor |
A scalar factor which gives upper and lower bounds for the initial interval for the golden section search relative to a preliminary value computed by dpik. |
Default value is 10 which specifies an initial interval of (dpik/10, dpik*10).
Maximization of the likelihood is accomplished by golden section search using the optimize() function. This can be very SLOW.
A scalar value.
