Method Detail

getDegreesOfFreedom

public double getDegreesOfFreedom()

Access the number of degrees of freedom.

Returns:

the degrees of freedom.

density

public double density(double x)

Returns the probability density function (PDF) of this distribution evaluated at the specified point x. In general, the PDF is the derivative of the CDF. If the derivative does not exist at x, then an appropriate replacement should be returned, e.g. Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY, Double.NaN, or the limit inferior or limit superior of the difference quotient.

Parameters:

x - the point at which the PDF is evaluated

Returns:

the value of the probability density function at point x

cumulativeProbability

public double cumulativeProbability(double x)

For a random variable X whose values are distributed according to this distribution, this method returns P(X <= x). In other words, this method represents the (cumulative) distribution function (CDF) for this distribution.

Parameters:

x - the point at which the CDF is evaluated

Returns:

the probability that a random variable with this distribution takes a value less than or equal to x

getSolverAbsoluteAccuracy

protected double getSolverAbsoluteAccuracy()

Returns the solver absolute accuracy for inverse cumulative computation. You can override this method in order to use a Brent solver with an absolute accuracy different from the default.

Overrides:

getSolverAbsoluteAccuracy in class AbstractRealDistribution

Returns:

the maximum absolute error in inverse cumulative probability estimates

getNumericalMean

public double getNumericalMean()

Use this method to get the numerical value of the mean of this distribution. For k degrees of freedom, the mean is k.

Returns:

the mean or Double.NaN if it is not defined

getNumericalVariance

public double getNumericalVariance()

Use this method to get the numerical value of the variance of this distribution.

Returns:

2 * k, where k is the number of degrees of freedom.

getSupportLowerBound

public double getSupportLowerBound()

Access the lower bound of the support. This method must return the same value as inverseCumulativeProbability(0). In other words, this method must return

inf {x in R | P(X <= x) > 0}.

The lower bound of the support is always 0 no matter the degrees of freedom.

Returns:

zero.

getSupportUpperBound

public double getSupportUpperBound()

Access the upper bound of the support. This method must return the same value as inverseCumulativeProbability(1). In other words, this method must return

inf {x in R | P(X <= x) = 1}.

The upper bound of the support is always positive infinity no matter the degrees of freedom.

Returns:

Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY.

isSupportLowerBoundInclusive

public boolean isSupportLowerBoundInclusive()

Returns true if support contains lower bound.

Returns:

false

isSupportUpperBoundInclusive

public boolean isSupportUpperBoundInclusive()

Returns true if support contains upper bound.

Returns:

false

isSupportConnected

public boolean isSupportConnected()

Use this method to get information about whether the support is connected, i.e. whether all values between the lower and upper bound of the support are included in the support. The support of this distribution is connected.

Returns:

true
