Double Binomial Distribution

Description

These functions provide information about the double binomial distribution with parameters m and s: density, cumulative distribution, quantiles, and random generation.

The double binomial distribution with total = n and prob = m has density

p(y) = c(n,m,s) Choose(n,y) n^(n s) (m/y)^(y s) ((1-m)/(n-y))^(s(n-y)) y^y (n-y)^(n-y)

for y = 0, …, n, where c(.) is a normalizing constant.

Usage

ddoublebinom(y, size, m, s, log=FALSE)
pdoublebinom(q, size, m, s)
qdoublebinom(p, size, m, s)
rdoublebinom(n, size, m, s)

Arguments

y	vector of frequencies
q	vector of quantiles
p	vector of probabilities
n	number of values to generate
size	vector of totals
m	vector of probabilities of success
s	vector of overdispersion parameters
log	if TRUE, log probabilities are supplied.
