Computation of Topp-Leone Cauchy Rayleigh (TLCAR) distribution’s properties

2024-02-17

Introduction to TLCAR

This vignette provides an overview of the “TLCAR” Package. The package TLCAR offers a powerful range of statistical tools for analysis,simulation, and computation based on the Topp-Leone Cauchy Rayleigh distribution (TLCAR). This distribution, which combines the properties of the Topp-Leone, Cauchy, and Rayleigh distributions,is particularly useful for modeling complex, heterogeneous data present in many scientific disciplines. With the “TLCAR” package, users can estimate the parameters of the TLCAR distribution from datasets, generate random samples according to this distribution, plot histograms and density functions, and calculate specific quantiles.

Installation

You can install the “TLCAR” package from CRAN using the following command:

Overview of TLCAR Distribution

The TLCAR distribution is particularly useful for modeling data with heavy tails, skewness, and positive values. It is a versatile distribution that can handle diverse characteristics in the data.

Probability Density Function (PDF) for TLCAR distribution

The probability density function (PDF) for the TLCAR distribution is given by the formula:

\[ f(x;\nu)=\frac{2\alpha}{\pi a} \times \left[\frac{1+\left(\frac{x^2}{\theta^2}-1\right)e^{-\frac{x^2}{2\theta^2}}+m}{1+\left(\frac{x\left(1-e^{-\frac{x^2}{2\theta^2}}+m\right) -b}{a}\right)^2}\right] \times\left[\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{\pi}\arctan\frac{x\left(1-e^{-\frac{x^2}{2\theta^2}}+m\right) -b}{a}\right] \times \left[ 1-\left(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{\pi}\arctan\frac{x\left(1-e^{-\frac{x^2}{2\theta^2}}+m\right)-b}{a}\right)^2\right]^{\alpha-1}\] where \(\alpha\) , \(a\) , \(\theta\) , \(m\) > 0 .

Example 1

Let’s calculate the PDF for \(x=1\) , \(\alpha=1\) , \(a=1\) , \(b=0\) , \(\theta=2\) and \(m=1\)

dTLCAR(x = 1, alpha = 1, a = 1, b = 0, theta = 2, m=1)
## [1] 0.08801882

Example 2

Let’s calculate the PDF for \(x=3\) , \(\alpha=2\) , \(a=1\) , \(b=2\) , \(\theta=2\) and \(m=4\)

dTLCAR(x = 3, alpha = 2, a = 1, b = 2, theta = 2, m=4)
## [1] 0.001247268

Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) for TLCAR distribution

The cumulative distribution function (CDF) for the TLCAR distribution is given by the formula:

\[F(x;\nu)=\left[ 1-\left(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{\pi}\arctan\frac{x\left(1-e^{-\frac{x^2}{2\theta^2}}+m\right) -b}{a}\right)^2\right]^\alpha \]

where \(\alpha\) , \(a\) , \(\theta\) , \(m\) > 0 .

Example 1

Let’s calculate the CDF for \(x=1\) , \(\alpha=1\) , \(a=1\) , \(b=0\) , \(\theta=2\) and \(m=1\)

cTLCAR(x = 1, alpha = 1, a = 1, b = 0, theta = 2,m=1)
## [1] 0.9460113

Example 2

Let’s calculate the CDF for \(x=3\) , \(\alpha=2\) , \(a=1\) , \(b=2\) , \(\theta=2\) and \(m=4\)

cTLCAR(x = 3, alpha = 2, a = 1, b = 2, theta = 2,m=4)
## [1] 0.9986058

Example

Let’s plot the PDF for a range of values with parameters \(\alpha=1\) , \(a=1\) , \(b=0\) , \(\theta=2\) and \(m=1\)

ploTLCAR(x = seq(-4, 10, by = 0.1), alpha = 1, a = 1,b=0, theta = 2,m=1, type = "pdf")

Let’s plot the CDF for a range of values with parameters \(\alpha=1\) , \(a=1\) , \(b=0\) , \(\theta=2\) and \(m=1\)

ploTLCAR(x = seq(-4, 10, by = 0.1), alpha = 1, a = 1,b=0, theta = 2, m=1,type = "cdf")

Quantile function for TLCAR distribution

The quantile function calculates the quantile value for a given probability using the TLCAR distribution.

Example 1

Let’s calculate the 0.5 quantile (median) using parameters \(\alpha=1\) , \(a=1\) , \(b=0\) ,\(\theta=2\) and \(m=1\)

qTLCAR(p = 0.5, alpha = 1, a = 1, b= 0, theta = 2,m=1)
## [1] -0.7166792

Example 2
