View source: R/ParetoFamily.R

Description

Generates an object of class "ParetoFamily" which represents a Pareto family.

Usage

1
2
ParetoFamily(Min = 1, shape = 0.5, trafo = NULL, start0Est = NULL,
                    withCentL2 = FALSE)

Arguments

Min

real: known/fixed threshold/location parameter

shape

positive real: shape parameter

trafo

matrix or NULL: transformation of the parameter

start0Est

startEstimator — if NULL log(2)/log(median/Min) is used

withCentL2

logical: shall L2 derivative be centered by substracting the E()? Defaults to FALSE, but higher accuracy can be achieved when set to TRUE.

Details

The slots of the corresponding L2 differentiable parameteric family are filled.

Value

Object of class "ParetoFamily"
