The Beta Generalized Exponentiated distribution

Source: R/dBGE.R
dBGE.Rd

Density, distribution function, quantile function, random generation and hazard function for the Beta Generalized Exponentiated distribution with parameters mu, sigma, nu and tau.

Usage

dBGE(x, mu, sigma, nu, tau, log = FALSE)

pBGE(q, mu, sigma, nu, tau, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

qBGE(p, mu, sigma, nu, tau, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

rBGE(n, mu, sigma, nu, tau)

hBGE(x, mu, sigma, nu, tau)

Arguments

x, q

vector of quantiles.

mu

parameter.

sigma

parameter.

nu

parameter.

tau

parameter.

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.

Value

dBGE gives the density, pBGE gives the distribution function, qBGE gives the quantile function, rBGE

generates random deviates and hBGE gives the hazard function.

Details

The Beta Generalized Exponentiated Distribution with parameters mu, sigma, nu and tau has density given by

\(f(x)= \frac{\nu \tau}{B(\mu, \sigma)} \exp(-\nu x)(1- \exp(-\nu x))^{\tau \mu - 1} (1 - (1- \exp(-\nu x))^\tau)^{\sigma -1},\)

for \(x > 0\), \(\mu > 0\), \(\sigma > 0\), \(\nu > 0\) and \(\tau > 0\).
