ZAIG: The zero adjusted Inverse Gaussian distribution for fitting a...

In Stan125/gamlss.dist: Distributions for Generalized Additive Models for Location Scale and Shape

Description

The function ZAIG() defines the zero adjusted Inverse Gaussian distribution, a three parameter distribution, for a gamlss.family object to be used in GAMLSS fitting using the function gamlss(). The zero adjusted Inverse Gaussian distribution is similar to the Inverse Gaussian distribution but allows zeros as y values. The extra parameter models the probabilities at zero. The functions dZAIG, pZAIG, qZAIG and rZAIG define the density, distribution function, quantile function and random generation for the ZAIG parameterization of the zero adjusted Inverse Gaussian distribution. plotZAIG can be used to plot the distribution. meanZAIG calculates the expected value of the response for a fitted model.

Usage

ZAIG(mu.link = "log", sigma.link = "log", nu.link = "logit")
dZAIG(x, mu = 1, sigma = 1, nu = 0.1, log = FALSE)
pZAIG(q, mu = 1, sigma = 1, nu = 0.1, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
qZAIG(p, mu = 1, sigma = 1, nu = 0.1, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
rZAIG(n, mu = 1, sigma = 1, nu = 0.1, ...)
plotZAIG(mu = 5, sigma = 1, nu = 0.1, from = 0, to = 10, n = 101, ...)
meanZAIG(obj)

Arguments

mu.link	Defines the mu.link, with "log" link as the default for the mu parameter
sigma.link	Defines the sigma.link, with "log" link as the default for the sigma parameter
nu.link	Defines the nu.link, with "logit" link as the default for the sigma parameter
x,q	vector of quantiles
mu	vector of location parameter values
sigma	vector of scale parameter values
nu	vector of probability at zero parameter values
log, log.p	logical; if TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p).
lower.tail	logical; if TRUE (default), probabilities are P[X <= x], otherwise, P[X > x]
p	vector of probabilities.
n	number of observations. If length(n) > 1, the length is taken to be the number required
from	where to start plotting the distribution from
to	up to where to plot the distribution
obj	a fitted BEINF object
...	... can be used to pass the uppr.limit argument to qIG

Details

The Zero adjusted IG distribution is given as

f(y|mu,sigma,nu)=nu

if (y=0)

f(y|mu,sigma,nu)=(1-nu)*(2*pi*sigma^2*y^3)^.5 exp(-(y-mu)^2/(2*mu^2sigma^2*y))

otherwise

for y=(0,Inf), mu>0, sigma>0 and 0<nu<1. E(y)=(1-nu)*mu and Var(y)=(1-nu)*mu^2*(nu+mu*sigma^2).

Value

returns a gamlss.family object which can be used to fit a zero adjusted inverse Gaussian distribution in the gamlss() function.
