hggamma: Log Hazard Function for a Generalized Gamma Process

Description

These functions provide information about the generalized gamma distribution with scale parameter equal to m, shape equal to s, and family parameter equal to f: log hazard. (See `rmutil` for the d/p/q/r boxcox functions density, cumulative distribution, quantiles, and random generation).

The generalized gamma distribution has density $$ f(y) = \frac{\nu y^{\nu-1}} {(\mu/\sigma)^{\nu\sigma} Gamma(\sigma)} y^{\nu(\sigma-1)} \exp(-(y \sigma/\mu)^\nu)$$

where \(\mu\) is the scale parameter of the distribution, \(\sigma\) is the shape, and \(\nu\) is the family parameter.

\(\nu=1\) yields a gamma distribution, \(\sigma=1\) a Weibull distribution, and \(\sigma=\infty\) a log normal distribution.

Usage

hggamma(y, s, m, f)

Arguments

y

vector of responses.

m

vector of location parameters.

s

vector of dispersion parameters.

f

vector of family parameters.
