abic.loglog: Akaike information criterion (AIC) and Bayesian/ Schwartz...

In reliaR: Comprehensive Tools for some Probability Distributions

Akaike information criterion (AIC) and Bayesian/ Schwartz information criterion (BIC)/ (SIC) for a sample from Loglog distribution

Description

The function abic.loglog( ) gives the loglikelihood, AIC and BIC values assuming Loglog distribution with parameters alpha and lambda. The function is based on the invariance property of the MLE.

Usage

abic.loglog(x, alpha.est, lambda.est)

Arguments

x	vector of observations
alpha.est	estimate of the parameter alpha
lambda.est	estimate of the parameter lambda

Value

The function abic.loglog( ) gives the loglikelihood, AIC and BIC values.
