Constructs a BDEGP-Family distribution with fixed number of components and blending interval.

Usage

dist_bdegp(n, m, u, epsilon)

Arguments

n

Number of dirac components, starting with a point mass at 0.

m

Number of erlang components, translated by n - 0.5.

u

Blending cut-off, must be a positive real.

epsilon

Blending radius, must be a positive real less than u. The blending interval will be u - epsilon < x < u + epsilon.

Value

  • A MixtureDistribution of

    • n DiracDistributions at 0 .. n - 1 and

    • a BlendedDistribution object with child Distributions

      • a TranslatedDistribution with offset n - 0.5 of an ErlangMixtureDistribution with m shapes

      • and a GeneralizedParetoDistribution with shape parameter restricted to [0, 1] and location parameter fixed at u With break u and bandwidth epsilon.

Examples

dist <- dist_bdegp(n = 1, m = 2, u = 10, epsilon = 3)
params <- list(
  dists = list(
    list(),
    list(
      dists = list(
        list(
          dist = list(
            shapes = list(1L, 2L),
