zi_zipfpssFit: Zero Inflated Zipf-PSS parameters estimation.

In zipfextR: Zipf Extended Distributions

Description

For a given sample of strictly positive integer numbers, usually of the type of ranking data or frequencies of frequencies data, estimates the parameters of the zero inflated Zipf-PSS distribution by means of the maximum likelihood method. The input data should be provided as a frequency matrix.

Usage

zi_zipfpssFit(data, init_alpha = 1.5, init_lambda = 1.5,
  init_w = 0.1, level = 0.95, ...)

Arguments

data	Matrix of count data in form of table of frequencies.
init_alpha	Initial value of α parameter (α > 1).
init_lambda	Initial value of λ parameter (λ > 0).
init_w	Initial value of w parameter (0 < w < 1).
level	Confidence level used to calculate the confidence intervals (default 0.95).
...	Further arguments to the generic functions. The extra arguments are passing to the optim function.
object	An object from class "zpssR" (output of zipfpssFit function).
x	An object from class "zpssR" (output of zipfpssFit function).

Details

The argument data is a two column matrix with the first column containing the observations and the second column containing their frequencies.
