Description

Returns ρ_p^*, used in the calculation of the strong asymetry measure η(X).

Usage

1
  Rhostar.p.exact(xin, p.param, dist, p1, p2)

Arguments

xin

A vector of data points - the available sample.

p.param

A parameter with the value greater than or equal to 1/2 and less than 1.

dist

Character string, specifies selected distribution function.

p1

A scalar. Parameter 1 (vector or object) of the selected distribution.

p2

A scalar. Parameter 2 (vector or object) of the selected distribution.

Details

Implements the quantity

\frac{ 2√{3}}{p} \frac{-\int_{ξ_{1-p}}^{∞}{f^2(x)(1-F(x))\,dx}+\frac{p}{2}\int_{ξ_{1-p}}^{∞} f^2(x)\,dx}{ ≤ft \{ p\int_{ξ_{1-p}}^{∞}f^3(x)\,dx-(\int_{ξ_{1-p}}^{∞}f^2(x)\,dx)^2 \right \}^{1/2} }

defined on page 6 Patil, Bagkavos and Wood (2014), see also (5) in Bagkavos, Patil and Wood (2016). This implementation uses exact calculation of the functionals in the definition of ρ_p^*.

Value

Returns a scalar, the exact value of ρ_p^*.
