ProbDistParametric class - Superclasses: ProbDist

Object representing parametric probability distribution

Description

ProbDistParametric is an abstract class defining the properties and methods of a parametric probability distribution.

Construction

ProbDistParametric is an abstract class. You cannot create instances of this class directly. You can construct an object in its subclass, ProbDistUnivParam, either by calling the subclass constructor, ProbDistUnivParam, or by using the fitdist function.

Methods

cdf	Return cumulative distribution function (CDF) for ProbDist object
pdf	Return probability density function (PDF) for ProbDist object
random	Generate random number drawn from ProbDist object

Note The above methods are inherited from the ProbDist class.

Properties

DistName	Read-only string containing probability distribution name of ProbDist object
InputData	Read-only structure containing information about input data to ProbDist object
NLogL	Read-only value specifying negative log likelihood for input data to ProbDistParametric object
NumParams	Read-only value specifying number of parameters of ProbDistParametric object
ParamCov	Read-only covariance matrix of parameter estimates of ProbDistParametric object
ParamDescription	Read-only cell array specifying descriptions of parameters of ProbDistParametric object
ParamIsFixed	Read-only logical array specifying fixed parameters of ProbDistParametric object
ParamNames	Read-only cell array specifying names of parameters of ProbDistParametric object
Params	Read-only array specifying values of parameters of ProbDistParametric object
Support	Read-only structure containing information about support of ProbDist object

Note Some of the above properties are inherited from the ProbDist class.
