Column-wise MLE of some univariate distributions.
colbeta.est(x, tol = 1e-07, maxiters = 100, parallel = FALSE)
collogitnorm.est(x)
colunitweibull.est(x, tol = 1e-07, maxiters = 100, parallel = FALSE)
colsimplex.est(x, tol = 1e-07)
A numerical matrix with data. Each column refers to a different vector of observations of the same distribution. The values must by percentages, exluding 0 and 1,
The tolerance value to terminate the Newton-Fisher algorithm.
The maximum number of iterations to implement.
Do you want to calculations to take place in parallel? The default value is FALSE
A matrix with two or three columns. The first one or the first two contain the parameter(s) of the distribution and the second or third column the relevant log-likelihood.
For each column, the same distribution is fitted and its parameters and log-likelihood are computed.
