Functions create statistical distributions

Description

make_distributions creates a distribution suitable for using it with integrated step selection functions

Usage

make_distribution(name, params, vcov = NULL, ...)

make_exp_distr(rate = 1)

make_hnorm_distr(sd = 1)

make_lnorm_distr(meanlog = 0, sdlog = 1)

make_unif_distr(min = -pi, max = pi)

make_vonmises_distr(kappa = 1, vcov = NULL)

make_gamma_distr(shape = 1, scale = 1, vcov = NULL)

Arguments

name	⁠[char(1)]⁠ Short name of distribution. See available_distr() for all currently implemented distributions.
params	⁠[list]⁠ A named list with parameters of the distribution.
vcov	⁠[matrix]⁠ A matrix with variance and covariances.
...	none implemented.
rate	⁠[double(1)>0]⁠ The rate of the exponential distribution.
sd	⁠[double(1)>0]⁠ The standard deviation of the half-normal distribution.
meanlog	⁠[double(1)>0]⁠ The standard deviation of the half-normal distribution.
sdlog	⁠[double(1)>0]⁠ The standard deviation of the half-normal distribution.
min	⁠[double(1)]⁠ The minimum of the uniform distribution.
max	⁠[double(1)]⁠ The minimum of the uniform distribution.
kappa	⁠[double(1)>=0]⁠ Concentration parameter of the von Mises distribution.
shape, scale	⁠[double(1)>=0]⁠ Shape and scale of the Gamma distribution

Value

A list of class amt_distr that contains the name (name) and parameters (params) of a distribution.
