tlogis: The Truncated Logistic Distribution

In crch: Censored Regression with Conditional Heteroscedasticity

The Truncated Logistic Distribution

Description

Density, distribution function, quantile function, and random generation for the left and/or right truncated logistic distribution.

Usage

dtlogis(x, location = 0, scale = 1, left = -Inf, right = Inf, log = FALSE)

ptlogis(q, location = 0, scale = 1, left = -Inf, right = Inf,
  lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

qtlogis(p, location = 0, scale = 1, left = -Inf, right = Inf, 
  lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

rtlogis(n, location = 0, scale = 1, left = -Inf, right = Inf)

Arguments

x, q	vector of quantiles.
p	vector of probabilities.
n	number of observations. If length(n) > 1, the length is taken to be the number required.
location	location parameter.
scale	scale parameter.
left	left truncation point.
right	right truncation point.
log, log.p	logical; if TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p).
lower.tail	logical; if TRUE (default), probabilities are P[X <= x] otherwise, P[X > x].

Details

If location or scale are not specified they assume the default values of 0 and 1, respectively. left and right have the defaults -Inf and Inf respectively.

The truncated logistic distribution has density

f(x) = 1/\sigma \lambda((x - \mu)/\sigma) / (\Lambda((right - \mu)/\sigma) - \Lambda((left - \mu)/\sigma))

for left \le x \le right, and 0 otherwise.

\Lambda and \lambda are the cumulative distribution function and probability density function of the standard logistic distribution respectively, \mu is the location of the distribution, and \sigma the scale.

Value

dtlogis gives the density, ptlogis gives the distribution function, qtlogis gives the quantile function, and rtlogis generates random deviates.
