Logistic distribution for fitting a GAMLSS

Description

The function LO(), or equivalently Logistic(), defines the logistic distribution, a two parameter distribution, for a gamlss.family object to be used in GAMLSS fitting using the function gamlss()

Usage

LO(mu.link = "identity", sigma.link = "log")
dLO(x, mu = 0, sigma = 1, log = FALSE)
pLO(q, mu = 0, sigma = 1, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
qLO(p, mu = 0, sigma = 1, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
rLO(n, mu = 0, sigma = 1)

Arguments

mu.link	Defines the mu.link, with "identity" link as the default for the mu parameter
sigma.link	Defines the sigma.link, with "log" link as the default for the sigma parameter
x,q	vector of quantiles
mu	vector of location parameter values
sigma	vector of scale parameter values
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]
p	vector of probabilities.
n	number of observations. If length(n) > 1, the length is taken to be the number required

Details

Definition file for Logistic distribution.

f(y|\mu,\sigma)=\frac{1}{\sigma} e^{-\left(\frac{y-\mu}{\sigma}\right)} [1+e^{-\left(\frac{y-\mu}{\sigma}\right)}]^{-2}

for y=(-\infty,\infty), \mu=(-\infty,\infty) and \sigma>0, see page 368 of Rigby et al. (2019).

Value

LO() returns a gamlss.family object which can be used to fit a logistic distribution in the gamlss() function. dLO() gives the density, pLO() gives the distribution function, qLO() gives the quantile function, and rLO() generates random deviates for the logistic distribution. The latest functions are based on the equivalent R functions for logistic distribution.

Note

\mu is the mean and \sigma \pi/ \sqrt3 is the standard deviation for the logistic distribution
