bilogis: Bivariate Logistic Distribution

Description

Density, distribution function, quantile function and random generation for the 4-parameter bivariate logistic distribution.

Usage

dbilogis(x1, x2, loc1 = 0, scale1 = 1, loc2 = 0, scale2 = 1, log = FALSE)
pbilogis(q1, q2, loc1 = 0, scale1 = 1, loc2 = 0, scale2 = 1)
rbilogis(n, loc1 = 0, scale1 = 1, loc2 = 0, scale2 = 1)

Arguments

x1, x2, q1, q2

vector of quantiles.

n

number of observations. Same as rlogis.

loc1, loc2

the location parameters $l_1$ and $l_2$.

scale1, scale2

the scale parameters $s_1$ and $s_2$.

log

Logical. If log = TRUE then the logarithm of the density is returned.

Value

• dbilogis gives the density, pbilogis gives the distribution function, and rbilogis generates random deviates (a two-column matrix).

Details

See bilogis, the VGAM family function for estimating the four parameters by maximum likelihood estimation, for the formula of the cumulative distribution function and other details.

Examples

par(mfrow = c(1, 3))
ymat <- rbilogis(n = 2000, loc1 = 5, loc2 = 7, scale2 = exp(1))
myxlim <- c(-2, 15); myylim <- c(-10, 30)
plot(ymat, xlim = myxlim, ylim = myylim)

N <- 100
x1 <- seq(myxlim[1], myxlim[2], len = N)
x2 <- seq(myylim[1], myylim[2], len = N)
ox <- expand.grid(x1, x2)
z <- dbilogis(ox[,1], ox[,2], loc1 = 5, loc2 = 7, scale2 = exp(1))
contour(x1, x2, matrix(z, N, N), main = "density")
z <- pbilogis(ox[,1], ox[,2], loc1 = 5, loc2 = 7, scale2 = exp(1))
contour(x1, x2, matrix(z, N, N), main = "cdf")
