mu is the location parameter. By default this is
set to 0.
delta
delta is the scale parameter of the distribution.
A default value of 1 has been set.
alpha
alpha is the tail parameter, with a default
value of 1.
beta
beta is the skewness parameter, by default
this is 0.
lambda
lambda is the shape parameter and dictates the
shape that the distribution shall take. Default value is 1.
param
Parameter vector of the generalized hyperbolic
distribution.
Value
ghypMean gives the mean of the generalized hyperbolic distribution,
ghypVar the variance, ghypSkew the skewness,
ghypKurt the kurtosis, and ghypMode the mode. The
formulae used for the mean is given in Prause (1999). The variance,
skewness and kurtosis are obtained using the recursive formula
implemented in ghypMom which can calculate moments of
all orders about any point.
The mode is found by a numerical optimisation using
optim. For the special case of the hyperbolic
distribution a formula for the mode is available, see
hyperbMode.
The parameterization of the generalized hyperbolic distribution used
for these functions is the (alpha, beta) one. See
ghypChangePars to transfer between parameterizations.
