Description

Class of L2 differentiable parametric families.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("L2ParamFamily", ...). More frequently they are created via the generating function L2ParamFamily.

Slots

name:

object of class "character": name of the family.

distribution:

object of class "Distribution": member of the family.

distrSymm:

Object of class "DistributionSymmetry": symmetry of distribution.

param:

object of class "ParamFamParameter": parameter of the family.

props:

object of class "character": properties of the family.

L2deriv:

object of class "EuclRandVariable": L2 derivative of the family.

L2derivSymm:

object of class "FunSymmList": symmetry of the maps included in L2deriv.

L2derivDistr:

object of class "UnivarDistrList": list which includes the distribution of L2deriv.

L2derivDistrSymm:

object of class "DistrSymmList": symmetry of the distributions included in L2derivDistr.

FisherInfo:

object of class "PosDefSymmMatrix": Fisher information of the family.

Extends

Class "ParamFamily", directly.
Class "ProbFamily", by class "ParamFamily".
