Moments for folded multivariate distributions

Description

It computes the kappa-th order moments for the folded p-variate Normal, Skew-normal (SN), Extended Skew-normal (ESN) and Student's t-distribution. It also output other lower moments involved in the recurrence approach.

Usage

momentsFMD(kappa,mu,Sigma,lambda = NULL,tau = NULL,nu = NULL,dist)

Arguments

kappa	moments vector of length p. All its elements must be integers greater or equal to 0. For the Student's-t case, kappa can be a scalar representing the order of the moment.
mu	a numeric vector of length p representing the location parameter.
Sigma	a numeric positive definite matrix with dimension pxp representing the scale parameter.
lambda	a numeric vector of length p representing the skewness parameter for SN and ESN cases. If lambda == 0, the ESN/SN reduces to a normal (symmetric) distribution.
tau	It represents the extension parameter for the ESN distribution. If tau == 0, the ESN reduces to a SN distribution.
nu	It represents the degrees of freedom for the Student's t-distribution. Must be an integer greater than 1.
dist	represents the folded distribution to be computed. The values are normal, SN , ESN and t for the doubly truncated Normal, Skew-normal, Extended Skew-normal and Student's t-distribution respectively.

Details

Univariate case is also considered, where Sigma will be the variance \sigma^2.

Value

A data frame containing p+1 columns. The p first containing the set of combinations of exponents summing up to kappa and the last column containing the the expected value. Normal cases (ESN, SN and normal) return prod(kappa)+1 moments while the Student's t-distribution case returns all moments of order up to kappa. See example section.

Warning

For the Student-t cases, including ST and EST, kappa-th order moments exist only for kappa < nu.

Note

Degrees of freedom must be a positive integer. If nu >= 300, Normal case is considered."
