Description

Log-Likelihood function \ell_n(η,φ,α)=\ln[L_n(η,φ,α)] in the three parameter generalized quantile-based asymmetric family of densities defined in Gijbels et al. (2019b).

Usage

1
LogLikGAD(y, eta, phi, alpha, f, g)

Arguments

y

This is a vector of quantiles.

eta

This is the location parameter η.

phi

This is the scale parameter φ.

alpha

This is the index parameter α.

f

This is the reference density function f which is a standard version of a unimodal and symmetric around 0 density.

g

This is the "link" function. The function g is to be differentiated. Therefore, g must be written as a function. For example, g<-function(y){log(y)} for log link function.

Value

LogLikGAD provides the realized value of the Log-likelihood function of the generalized quantile-based asymmetric family of distributions.

# Example 1: Let F be a standard normal cumulative distribution function then
f_N<-function(s){dnorm(s, mean = 0,sd = 1)} # density function of N(0,1)
y<-rnorm(100)
g_id<-function(y){y}
g_log<-function(y){log(y)}
LogLikGAD(y,eta=0,phi=1,alpha=0.5,f=f_N,g=g_id) # For identity-link
LogLikGAD(rexp(100,0.1),eta=10,phi=1,alpha=0.5,f=f_N,g=g_log) # For log-link


# Example 2: Let F be a standard Laplace cumulative distribution function then
f_La<-function(s){0.5*exp(-abs(s))} # density function of Laplace(0,1)
LogLikGAD(y,eta=0,phi=1,alpha=0.5,f=f_La,g=g_id) # For identity-link
LogLikGAD(rexp(100,0.1),eta=10,phi=1,alpha=0.5,f=f_La,g=g_log) # For log-link
