View source: R/Derv2.R

Description

Calculating the second order derivative of the likelihood function of the pencopula approach w.r.t. the parameter b. Thereby, for later use, the program calculates the second order derivative with and without the penalty. Moreover, Derv2 seperates the calculation for temporary weights b in iteration and final weights b.

Usage

1
Derv2(penden.env, temp = FALSE)

Arguments

penden.env

Containing all information, environment of pendensity()

temp

smoothing parameter lambda

Details

We approximate the second order derivative in this approach with the negative fisher information.

Value

Derv2.pen

second order derivative w.r.t. beta with penalty

Derv2.cal

second order derivative w.r.t. beta without penalty. Needed for calculating of e.g. AIC.

Derv2.cal and Derv2.pen are saved in the environment.
