ParamFamily: Generating function for ParamFamily-class

In ROptEstOld: Optimally Robust Estimation - Old Version

Generating function for ParamFamily-class

Description

Generates an object of class "ParamFamily".

Usage

ParamFamily(name, distribution = Norm(), distrSymm, main = 0, 
            nuisance, trafo, param, props = character(0))

Arguments

name	character string: name of family
distribution	object of class "Distribution": member of the family
distrSymm	object of class "DistributionSymmetry": symmetry of distribution.
main	numeric vector: main parameter
nuisance	numeric vector: nuisance parameter
trafo	matrix: transformation of the parameters
param	object of class "ParamFamParameter": parameter of the family
props	character vector: properties of the family

Details

If name is missing, the default “"parametric family of probability measures"” is used. In case distrSymm is missing it is set to NoSymmetry(). If param is missing, the parameter is created via main, nuisance and trafo as described in ParamFamParameter.

Value

Object of class "ParamFamily"
