gbetag: generalized beta G distribution

Description

Computes the pdf, cdf, quantile, and random numbers, draws the q-q plot, and estimates the parameters of the generalized beta G distribution. General form for the probability density function (pdf) of the generalized beta G distribution due to Alexander et al. (2012) is given by $$f(x,{\Theta}) = \frac{{d\,g(x-\mu,\theta ){{\left( {G(x-\mu,\theta )} \right)}^{ad - 1}}{{\left[ {1 - {{\left( {G(x-\mu,\theta )} \right)}^d}} \right]}^{b - 1}}}}{{B\left( {a,b} \right)}},$$ where \(\theta\) is the baseline family parameter vector. Also, a>0, b>0, d>0, and \(\mu\) are the extra parameters induced to the baseline cumulative distribution function (cdf) G whose pdf is g. The general form for the cumulative distribution function (cdf) of the generalized beta G distribution is given by $$F(x,{\Theta}) = \frac{{\int_0^{{{\left( {G(x-\mu,\theta )} \right)}^d}} {{y^{a - 1}}{{\left( {1 - y} \right)}^{b - 1}}} dy}}{{B(a,b)}}.$$ Here, the baseline G refers to the cdf of famous families such as: Birnbaum-Saunders, Burr type XII, Exponential, Chen, Chisquare, F, Frechet, Gamma, Gompertz, Linear failure rate (lfr), Log-normal, Log-logistic, Lomax, Rayleigh, and Weibull. The parameter vector is \(\Theta=(a,b,d,\theta,\mu)\) where \(\theta\) is the baseline G family's parameter space. If \(\theta\) consists of the shape and scale parameters, the last component of \(\theta\) is the scale parameter (here, a, b, and d are the first, second, and the third shape parameters). Always, the location parameter \(\mu\) is placed in the last component of \(\Theta\).

Usage

dgbetag(mydata, g, param, location = TRUE, log=FALSE)
pgbetag(mydata, g, param, location = TRUE, log.p = FALSE, lower.tail = TRUE)
qgbetag(p, g, param, location = TRUE, log.p = FALSE, lower.tail = TRUE)
rgbetag(n, g, param, location = TRUE)
qqgbetag(mydata, g, location = TRUE, method)
mpsgbetag(mydata, g, location = TRUE, method, sig.level)

Arguments

g

The name of family's pdf including: "birnbaum-saunders", "burrxii", "chisq", "chen", "exp", "f", "frechet", "gamma", "gompetrz", "lfr", "log-normal", "log-logistic", "lomax", "rayleigh", and "weibull".

p

a vector of value(s) between 0 and 1 at which the quantile needs to be computed.

n

number of realizations to be generated.

mydata

Vector of observations.

param

parameter vector \(\Theta=(a,b,d,\theta,\mu)\)

location

If FALSE, then the location parameter will be omitted.

log

If TRUE, then log(pdf) is returned.

log.p

If TRUE, then log(cdf) is returned and quantile is computed for exp(-p).

lower.tail

If FALSE, then 1-cdf is returned and quantile is computed for 1-p.

method

The used method for maximizing the sum of log-spacing function. It will be "BFGS", "CG", "L-BFGS-B", "Nelder-Mead", or "SANN".

sig.level

Significance level for the Chi-square goodness-of-fit test.

Value

  1. A vector of the same length as mydata, giving the pdf values computed at mydata.

  2. A vector of the same length as mydata, giving the cdf values computed at mydata.

  3. A vector of the same length as p, giving the quantile values computed at p.

  4. A vector of the same length as n, giving the random numbers realizations.

  5. A sequence of goodness-of-fit statistics such as: Akaike Information Criterion (AIC), Consistent Akaike Information Criterion (CAIC), Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), Hannan-Quinn information criterion (HQIC), Cramer-von Misses statistic (CM), Anderson Darling statistic (AD), log-likelihood statistic (log), and Moran's statistic (M). The Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test statistic and corresponding p-value. The Chi-square test statistic, critical upper tail Chi-square distribution, related p-value, and the convergence status.

Details

It can be shown that the Moran's statistic follows a normal distribution. Also, a chi-square approximation exists for small samples whose mean and variance approximately are m(log(m)+0.57722)-0.5-1/(12*m) and m(\(\pi^2\)/6-1)-0.5-1/(6m), respectively, with m=n+1, see Cheng and Stephens (1989). So, a hypothesis tesing can be constructed based on a sample of n independent realizations at the given significance level, indicated in above as sig.level.
