pub struct Multinomial { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

Implements the Multinomial distribution which is a generalization of the Binomial distribution

Examples

use statrs::distribution::Multinomial;
use statrs::statistics::MeanN;
use nalgebra::DVector;

let n = Multinomial::new(&[0.3, 0.7], 5).unwrap();
assert_eq!(n.mean().unwrap(), DVector::from_vec(vec![1.5, 3.5]));

Implementations§

Constructs a new multinomial distribution with probabilities p and n number of trials.

Errors

Returns an error if p is empty, the sum of the elements in p is 0, or any element in p is less than 0 or is f64::NAN

Note

The elements in p do not need to be normalized

Examples
use statrs::distribution::Multinomial;

let mut result = Multinomial::new(&[0.0, 1.0, 2.0], 3);
assert!(result.is_ok());

result = Multinomial::new(&[0.0, -1.0, 2.0], 3);
assert!(result.is_err());

Returns the probabilities of the multinomial distribution as a slice

Examples
use statrs::distribution::Multinomial;

let n = Multinomial::new(&[0.0, 1.0, 2.0], 3).unwrap();
assert_eq!(n.p(), [0.0, 1.0, 2.0]);

Returns the number of trials of the multinomial distribution

Examples
use statrs::distribution::Multinomial;

let n = Multinomial::new(&[0.0, 1.0, 2.0], 3).unwrap();
assert_eq!(n.n(), 3);

Calculates the probability mass function for the multinomial distribution with the given x’s corresponding to the probabilities for this distribution

Panics

If the elements in x do not sum to n or if the length of x is not equivalent to the length of p

Formula

where n is the number of trials, p_i is the ith probability, x_i is the ith x value, and k is the total number of probabilities

Calculates the log probability mass function for the multinomial distribution with the given x’s corresponding to the probabilities for this distribution

Panics

If the elements in x do not sum to n or if the length of x is not equivalent to the length of p

Formula
ln((n! / x_1!...x_k!) * p_i^x_i) for i in 1...k

where n is the number of trials, p_i is the ith probability, x_i is the ith x value, and k is the total number of probabilities

Returns the mean of the multinomial distribution

This method tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason. Read more

Returns the variance of the multinomial distribution

Formula
n * p_i * (1 - p_i) for i in 1...k

where n is the number of trials, p_i is the ith probability, and k is the total number of probabilities
