Robust Moments for the GHT

Description

Computes the first four robust moments for the generalized hyperbolic Student-t.

Usage

ghtMED(beta = 0.1, delta = 1, mu = 0, nu = 10)
ghtIQR(beta = 0.1, delta = 1, mu = 0, nu = 10)
ghtSKEW(beta = 0.1, delta = 1, mu = 0, nu = 10)
ghtKURT(beta = 0.1, delta = 1, mu = 0, nu = 10)

Arguments

beta, delta, mu

numeric values. beta is the skewness parameter in the range (0, alpha); delta is the scale parameter, must be zero or positive; mu is the location parameter, by default 0. These are the parameters in the first parameterization.

nu

a numeric value, the number of degrees of freedom. Note, alpha takes the limit of abs(beta), and lambda=-nu/2.

Value

All values for the *ght functions are numeric vectors: d* returns the density, p* returns the distribution function, q* returns the quantile function, and r* generates random deviates.

All values have attributes named "param" listing the values of the distributional parameters.
