logitnorm-package.RdUtilities for the logitnormal distribution in R
Density, distribution, quantile and random generation function.
Estimation of the mode and the first two moments.
Estimation of distribution parameters from observations.
The package provides the main distribution functions:
density dlogitnorm,
distribution plogitnorm,
quantile qlogitnorm, and
random generation function rlogitnorm.
Transformation functions
Moments and mode
Expected value and variance: momentsLogitnorm
Mode: modeLogitnorm
Estimating parameters
from mode and upper quantile: twCoefLogitnormMLE
from mode and constraint to be unimodal and maximally flat: twCoefLogitnormMLEFlat
from median and upper quantile: twCoefLogitnorm
from expected value, i.e. mean and upper quantile: twCoefLogitnormE
from a confidence interval which is symmetric at normal scale: twCoefLogitnormCi
from prescribed quantiles: twCoefLogitnormN
