MVN

Multivariate normal distribution

Description

Density and random generation for the multivariate normal distribution with mean equal to mean, precision matrix equal to Q (or covariance matrix equal to Sigma).

Function rcMVN samples from the multivariate normal distribution with a canonical mean b, i.e., the mean is mu = Q^{-1} * b.

Usage

dMVN(x, mean=0, Q=1, Sigma, log=FALSE)

rMVN(n, mean=0, Q=1, Sigma)

rcMVN(n, b=0, Q=1, Sigma)

Arguments

`mean`	vector of mean.
`b`	vector of a canonical mean.
`Q`	precision matrix of the multivariate normal distribution. Ignored if `Sigma` is given.
`Sigma`	covariance matrix of the multivariate normal distribution. If `Sigma` is supplied, precision is computed from Sigma as Q = Sigma^{-1}.
`n`	number of observations to be sampled.
`x`	vector or matrix of the points where the density should be evaluated.
`log`	logical; if `TRUE`, log-density is computed

Value

Some objects.

Value for dMVN

A vector with evaluated values of the (log-)density

Value for rMVN

A list with the components:

x: vector or matrix with sampled values
log.dens: vector with the values of the log-density evaluated in the sampled values

Value for rcMVN

A list with the components:

x: vector or matrix with sampled values
mean: vector or the mean of the normal distribution
log.dens: vector with the values of the log-density evaluated in the sampled values

### Univariate normal distribution
### ==============================
c(dMVN(0), dnorm(0))
c(dMVN(0, log=TRUE), dnorm(0, log=TRUE))

rbind(dMVN(c(-1, 0, 1)), dnorm(c(-1, 0, 1)))
rbind(dMVN(c(-1, 0, 1), log=TRUE), dnorm(c(-1, 0, 1), log=TRUE))

c(dMVN(1, mean=1.2, Q=0.5), dnorm(1, mean=1.2, sd=sqrt(2)))
c(dMVN(1, mean=1.2, Q=0.5, log=TRUE), dnorm(1, mean=1.2, sd=sqrt(2), log=TRUE))

rbind(dMVN(0:2, mean=1.2, Q=0.5), dnorm(0:2, mean=1.2, sd=sqrt(2)))
rbind(dMVN(0:2, mean=1.2, Q=0.5, log=TRUE), dnorm(0:2, mean=1.2, sd=sqrt(2), log=TRUE))

dMVN(mu, mean=mu, Q=Q, log=TRUE)
dMVN(mu, mean=mu, Sigma=Sigma, log=TRUE)

xx <- matrix(c(0,6,8, 1,5,7, -0.5,5.5,8.5, 0.5,6.5,7.5), ncol=3, byrow=TRUE)

### The same using the package mvtnorm
### ==================================
# require(mvtnorm)
# c(dMVN(mu, mean=mu, Sigma=Sigma), dmvnorm(mu, mean=mu, sigma=Sigma))
# c(dMVN(mu, mean=mu, Sigma=Sigma, log=TRUE), dmvnorm(mu, mean=mu, sigma=Sigma, log=TRUE))
#
# rbind(dMVN(xx, mean=mu, Sigma=Sigma), dmvnorm(xx, mean=mu, sigma=Sigma))
# rbind(dMVN(xx, mean=mu, Sigma=Sigma, log=TRUE), dmvnorm(xx, mean=mu, sigma=Sigma, log=TRUE))
