ref_family

Usage

ref_gaussian(min_scale = 0.01)

ref_shash(min_scale = 0.01)

These objects describe a conditional distribution family. They are not fitted models. Engines use them to choose a likelihood and to construct distributional vectors. ref_gaussian() models location and scale; ref_shash() adds skew and tail (four parameters), with the mgcv link functions (identity location, logb / logeb scale).

Arguments

Argument	Description
min_scale	Minimum scale used by the logb / logeb links.

Value

An object of class ref_family with fields name and min_scale.
