Create a Parametric Negative Binomial CGF Object

Creates a CGF object for the Negative Binomial distribution with number of successes \(r(\theta)\) and success probability parameter \(p(\theta)\) defined by user-provided parameter functions. This function supports both i.i.d. and non-identical usage.

Usage

NegBinModelCGF(r, p, iidReps = "any", ...)

Arguments

r

A function (or adaptor) that accepts a single parameter vector theta and returns the number of successes.

p

A function (or adaptor) that accepts a single parameter vector theta and returns a scalar success probability or a vector of success probabilities.

iidReps

Either "any" or a positive integer specifying how many i.i.d. blocks are expected. Defaults to "any", meaning no restriction on the length of tvec.

...

Additional arguments passed to the underlying CGF creation function.

Value

A CGF object.
