dnormalizer: Normalizing constant generator

In nimbleSCR: Spatial Capture-Recapture (SCR) Methods Using 'nimble'

Normalizing constant generator

Description

A normalizer used for normalizing nimble distributions. It is particularly useful for fitting dpoisppDetection_normal and dpoisppLocalDetection_normal models using the semi-complete data likelihood approach.

Usage

dnormalizer(x, logNormConstant, log = 0)

rnormalizer(n, logNormConstant)

Arguments

x	Input data, which can be any scalar and will not influence the return value.
logNormConstant	Normalizing constant on a log scale.
log	Logical. If TRUE return the log normalizing constant. Otherwise return the normalizing constant.
n	Integer specifying the number of realisations to generate. Only n = 1 is supported.

Value

The normalizing constant.
