EXTPLindley: Extended Power Lindley Distribution

In LindleyR: The Lindley Distribution and Its Modifications

Description

Density function, distribution function, quantile function, random number generation and hazard rate function for the extended power Lindley distribution with parameters theta, alpha and beta.

Usage

dextplindley(x, theta, alpha, beta, log = FALSE)

pextplindley(q, theta, alpha, beta, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

qextplindley(p, theta, alpha, beta, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

rextplindley(n, theta, alpha, beta, mixture = TRUE)

hextplindley(x, theta, alpha, beta, log = FALSE)

Arguments

x, q	vector of positive quantiles.
theta, alpha, beta	positive parameters.
log, log.p	logical; If TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p).
lower.tail	logical; If TRUE, (default), P(X ≤q x) are returned, otherwise P(X > x).
p	vector of probabilities.
n	number of observations. If length(n) > 1, the length is taken to be the number required.
mixture	logical; If TRUE, (default), random deviates are generated from a two-component mixture of gamma distributions, otherwise from the quantile function.

Details

Probability density function

f(x\mid θ,α,β )={\frac{α θ ^{2}}{θ +β }}(1+β x^{α })\ x^{α -1}\ e^{-θ x^{α }}

Cumulative distribution function

F(x\mid θ,α,β )=1-≤ft( 1+{\frac{β θ x^{α }}{θ +β }}\right) \ e^{-θ x^{α }}

Quantile function

Q(p\mid θ ,α ,β )={≤ft[ -\frac{1}{θ }-\frac{1}{β }-{\frac{1}{θ }}W_{-1}{≤ft( \frac{1}{β }≤ft( p-1\right) ≤ft( β +θ \right) e{{^{-≤ft( {\frac{β +θ }{β }}\right) }}}\right) }\right] }^{\frac{1}{α }}

Hazard rate function

h(x\mid θ ,α ,β )={\frac{α {θ }^{2}≤ft( 1+β {x}^{α }\right) {x}^{α -1}}{≤ft( β +θ \right) {≤ft(1+{\frac{β θ {x}^{α }}{β +θ }}\right) }}}

where W_{-1} denotes the negative branch of the Lambert W function.

Particular cases: β = 1 the power Lindley distribution, α = 1 the two-parameter Lindley distribution and (α = 1, β = 1) the one-parameter Lindley distribution.

Value

dextplindley gives the density, pextplindley gives the distribution function, qextplindley gives the quantile function, rextplindley generates random deviates and hextplindley gives the hazard rate function.

Invalid arguments will return an error message.

[d-h-p-q-r]extplindley are calculated directly from the definitions. rextplindley uses either a two-component mixture of gamma distributions or the quantile function.
