gamma.gc: The Gamma Marginal of Class 'marginal.gc'

In gcKrig: Analysis of Geostatistical Count Data using Gaussian Copulas

The Gamma Marginal of Class marginal.gc

Description

The Gamma marginal used for simulation and computing correlation in the trans-Gaussian random field in functions simgc and corrTG of the package gcKrig. It cannot be used in functions mlegc nor predgc to make model inferences.

Usage

gm.gc(shape = 1, rate = 1)

Arguments

shape	a non-negative scalar, shape parameter of the Gamma distribution.
rate	a non-negative scalar, rate parameter of the Gamma distribution.

Details

The Gamma distribution with parameters shape = a and rate = r has density

r^a/Γ(a) x^(a-1) exp(-rx)

for x ≥ 0, a > 0 and s > 0.

Value

An object of class marginal.gc representing the marginal component.
