The Marshall-Olkin Kappa family

Usage

MOK(mu.link = "log", sigma.link = "log", nu.link = "log", tau.link = "log")

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.

nu.link

defines the nu.link, with "log" link as the default for the nu parameter.

tau.link

defines the tau.link, with "log" link as the default for the tau parameter.

Value

Returns a gamlss.family object which can be used to fit a MOK distribution in the gamlss() function.

Details

The Marshall-Olkin Kappa distribution with parameters mu, sigma, nu and tau has density given by

\(f(x)=\frac{\tau\frac{\mu\nu}{\sigma}\left(\frac{x}{\sigma}\right)^{\nu-1} \left(\mu+\left(\frac{x}{\sigma}\right)^{\mu\nu}\right)^{-\frac{\mu+1}{\mu}}}{\left(\tau+(1-\tau)\left(\frac{\left(\frac{x}{\sigma}\right)^{\mu\nu}}{\mu+\left(\frac{x}{\sigma}\right)^{\mu\nu}}\right)^{\frac{1}{\mu}}\right)^2}\)

for x > 0.

# Example 1
# Generating some random values with
# known mu, sigma, nu and tau
y <- rMOK(n=100, mu = 1, sigma = 3.5, nu = 3, tau = 2)

# Fitting the model
require(gamlss)

mod <- gamlss(y~1, sigma.fo=~1, nu.fo=~1, tau.fo=~1, family=MOK,
              control=gamlss.control(n.cyc=5000, trace=FALSE))
