Method Detail

getShape

public double getShape()

Access the shape parameter, alpha.

Returns:

the shape parameter, alpha.

getScale

public double getScale()

Access the scale parameter, beta.

Returns:

the scale parameter, beta.

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

inverseCumulativeProbability

public double inverseCumulativeProbability(double p)

Computes the quantile function of this distribution. For a random variable X distributed according to this distribution, the returned value is

• inf{x in R | P(X<=x) >= p} for 0 < p <= 1,
• inf{x in R | P(X<=x) > 0} for p = 0.

The default implementation returns

• RealDistribution.getSupportLowerBound() for p = 0,
• RealDistribution.getSupportUpperBound() for p = 1.

Returns 0 when p == 0 and Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY when p == 1.

Specified by:

inverseCumulativeProbability in interface RealDistribution

Overrides:

inverseCumulativeProbability in class AbstractRealDistribution

Parameters:

p - the cumulative probability

Returns:

the smallest p-quantile of this distribution (largest 0-quantile for p = 0)

getSolverAbsoluteAccuracy

protected double getSolverAbsoluteAccuracy()

Return the absolute accuracy setting of the solver used to estimate inverse cumulative probabilities.

Overrides:

getSolverAbsoluteAccuracy in class AbstractRealDistribution

Returns:

the solver absolute accuracy.

the mean or Double.NaN if it is not defined

calculateNumericalMean

protected double calculateNumericalMean()

used by getNumericalMean()

Returns:

the mean of this distribution

getNumericalVariance

public double getNumericalVariance()

Use this method to get the numerical value of the variance of this distribution. The variance is scale^2 * Gamma(1 + (2 / shape)) - mean^2 where Gamma() is the Gamma-function.

Returns:

the variance (possibly Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY as for certain cases in TDistribution) or Double.NaN if it is not defined

calculateNumericalVariance

protected double calculateNumericalVariance()

used by getNumericalVariance()

Returns:

the variance of this distribution

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 parameters.

Returns:

lower bound of the support (always 0)

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 parameters.

Returns:

upper bound of the support (always Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY)

isSupportLowerBoundInclusive

public boolean isSupportLowerBoundInclusive()

Returns true if support contains lower bound.

Returns:

public boolean isSupportUpperBoundInclusive()

Returns true if support contains upper bound.

Returns:

false

isSupportConnected

public boolean isSupportConnected()
