Estimate Statistics
Description
Support function for computing statistics for left-censored data using the
adjusted maximum-likelihood method (Cohn, 1988)
Usage
mdlAMLE(x, method = "AMLE", alpha = 0.4)
Arguments
x
the data to estimate, Missing values permitted and ignored.
Must be an object of class "lcens," a numeric vector, or the output from censpp.
method
the method to use, either "AMLE" or "log AMLE."
alpha
the offset for plotting postion, used to compute the filled in values.
Value
A list containing the mean and standard deviation, filled in
values for the censored values, and the maximum censor level. If method
is "log AMLE," then the list also contains the mean and standard deviation of the
natural log-transformed values computed by maximum likelihood.
