Birnbaum-Saunders distributionR Documentation

Compute the Shannon, Rényi, Havrda and Charvat, and Arimoto entropies of the Birnbaum-Saunders distribution

Description

Compute the Shannon, Rényi, Havrda and Charvat, and Arimoto entropies of the Birnbaum-Saunders distribution.

Usage

se_bs(v)
re_bs(v, delta)
hce_bs(v, delta)
ae_bs(v, delta)

Arguments

v

The strictly positive scale parameter of the Birnbaum-Saunders distribution (v > 0).

delta

The strictly positive parameter (\delta > 0) and (\delta \ne 1).

Details

The following is the probability density function of the Birnbaum-Saunders distribution:

f(x)=\frac{x^{0.5}+x^{-0.5}}{2vx}\phi\left(\frac{x^{0.5}-x^{-0.5}}{v}\right),

where x > 0 and v > 0, and \phi(x) is the probability density function of the standard normal distribution.

Value

The functions se_bs, re_bs, hce_bs, and ae_bs provide the Shannon entropy, Rényi entropy, Havrda and Charvat entropy, and Arimoto entropy, respectively, depending on the selected parametric values of the Birnbaum-Saunders distribution and \delta.
