InverseExponential: The Inverse Exponential Distribution

Description

Density, distribution function, quantile function, random generation raw moments and limited moments for the Inverse Exponential distribution with parameter scale.

Usage

dinvexp(x, rate = 1, scale = 1/rate, log = FALSE)
  pinvexp(q, rate = 1, scale = 1/rate, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
  qinvexp(p, rate = 1, scale = 1/rate, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
  rinvexp(n, rate = 1, scale = 1/rate)
  minvexp(order, rate = 1, scale = 1/rate)
  levinvexp(limit, rate = 1, scale = 1/rate, order = 1)

Arguments

x, q

vector of quantiles.

p

vector of probabilities.

n

number of observations. If length(n) > 1, the length is taken to be the number required.

scale

parameter. Must be strictly positive.

rate

an alternative way to specify the scale.

log, log.p

logical; if TRUE, probabilities/densities $p$ are returned as $\log(p)$.

lower.tail

logical; if TRUE (default), probabilities are $P[X \le x]$, otherwise, $P[X > x]$.

order

order of the moment.

limit

limit of the loss variable.

Details

The Inverse Exponential distribution with parameter scale $\theta$ has density: $$f(x) = \frac{s e^{-s/x}}{x^2}$$ for $x > 0$ and $\theta > 0$.

Invalid arguments will result in return value NaN, with a warning.

The $k$th raw moment of the random variable $X$ is $E[X^k]$ and the $k$ limited moment at some limit $d$ is $E[\min(X, d)]$.
