Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) See Also Examples

Generates an object of class "ParamFamily".

1 2	ParamFamily(name, distribution = Norm(), distrSymm, main = 0, nuisance, trafo, param, props = character(0))

`name`	character string: name of family
`distribution`	object of class `"Distribution"`: member of the family
`distrSymm`	object of class `"DistributionSymmetry"`: symmetry of `distribution`.
`main`	numeric vector: main parameter
`nuisance`	numeric vector: nuisance parameter
`trafo`	matrix: transformation of the parameters
`param`	object of class `"ParamFamParameter"`: parameter of the family
`props`	character vector: properties of the family

If name is missing, the default “"parametric family of probability measures"” is used. In case distrSymm is missing it is set to NoSymmetry(). If param is missing, the parameter is created via main, nuisance and trafo as described in ParamFamParameter.
