mmtdiff: Moment-Matching Approximation for t-Distribution Differences

Overview

The mmtdiff package implements the moment-matching approximation for differences of non-standardized t-distributed random variables in both univariate and multivariate settings.

Installation

# Install from GitHub (once available)
# devtools::install_github("yamagubed/mmtdiff")

# Or install locally
devtools::install_local("path/to/mmtdiff")

Usage

Univariate Case

library(mmtdiff)

# Basic example
result <- mm_tdiff_univariate(
  mu1 = 0, sigma1 = 1, nu1 = 10,
  mu2 = 0, sigma2 = 1.5, nu2 = 15
)
print(result)

# Distribution functions
dtdiff(0, result)           # Density
ptdiff(0, result)           # CDF
qtdiff(c(0.025, 0.975), result)  # Quantiles
samples <- rtdiff(1000, result)  # Random generation

Multivariate Case (Independent Components)

result <- mm_tdiff_multivariate_independent(
  mu1 = c(0, 1), 
  sigma1 = c(1, 1.5), 
  nu1 = c(10, 12),
  mu2 = c(0, 0), 
  sigma2 = c(1.2, 1), 
  nu2 = c(15, 20)
)

Multivariate Case (General Covariance)

Sigma1 <- matrix(c(1, 0.3, 0.3, 1), 2, 2)
Sigma2 <- matrix(c(1.5, 0.5, 0.5, 1.2), 2, 2)

result <- mm_tdiff_multivariate_general(
  mu1 = c(0, 1), 
  Sigma1 = Sigma1, 
  nu1 = 10,
  mu2 = c(0, 0), 
  Sigma2 = Sigma2, 
  nu2 = 15
)
