These functions provide the ability for generating probability function values and cumulative probability function values for the Grassia-II-Binomial Distribution.
Arguments
- x
vector of binomial random variables.
- n
single value for no of binomial trials.
- a
single value for shape parameter a.
- b
single value for shape parameter b.
Details
Mixing Gamma distribution with Binomial distribution will create the the Grassia-II-Binomial distribution, only when (1-p)=e^(-lambda) of the Binomial distribution. The probability function and cumulative probability function can be constructed and are denoted below.
The cumulative probability function is the summation of probability function values.
$$P_{GrassiaIIBin}[x]= {n \choose x} \sum_{j=0}^{x} {x \choose j} (-1)^{x-j} (1+b(n-j))^{-a} $$ $$a,b > 0$$ $$x = 0,1,2,...,n$$ $$n = 1,2,3,...$$
The mean, variance and over dispersion are denoted as $$E_{GrassiaIIBin}[x] = (\frac{b}{b+1})^a$$ $$Var_{GrassiaIIBin}[x] = n^2[(\frac{b}{b+2})^a - (\frac{b}{b+1})^{2a}] + n(\frac{b}{b+1})^a{1-(\frac{b+1}{b+2})^a}$$ $$over dispersion= \frac{(\frac{b}{b+2})^a - (\frac{b}{b+1})^{2a}}{(\frac{b}{b+1})^a[1-(\frac{b}{b+1})^a]}$$
