mazKUM: Kumaraswamy Distribution

Description Usage Arguments Details Value References See Also Examples

Description

These functions provide the ability for generating probability density values, cumulative probability density values and moment about zero values for the Kumaraswamy Distribution bounded between [0,1].

Usage

1
mazKUM(r,a,b)

Arguments

r

vector of moments.

a

single value for shape parameter alpha representing as a.

b

single value for shape parameter beta representing as b.

Details

The probability density function and cumulative density function of a unit bounded Kumaraswamy Distribution with random variable P are given by

g_{P}(p)= abp^{a-1}(1-p^a)^{b-1}

; 0 ≤ p ≤ 1

G_{P}(p)= 1-(1-p^a)^b

; 0 ≤ p ≤ 1

a,b > 0

The mean and the variance are denoted by

E[P]= bB(1+\frac{1}{a},b)

var[P]= bB(1+\frac{2}{a},b)-(bB(1+\frac{1}{a},b))^2

The moments about zero is denoted as

E[P^r]= bB(1+\frac{r}{a},b)

r = 1,2,3,...

Defined as B(a,b) is the beta function.

NOTE : If input parameters are not in given domain conditions necessary error messages will be provided to go further.

Value

The output of mazKUM gives the moments about zero in vector form.
