Evaluate Arbitrary Negative Binomial Convolutions

Documentation for package ‘nbconv’ version 1.0.0

dnbconv	Calculates the PMF for the convolution of arbitrary negative binomial random variables.
nbconv_params	Calculates distribution parameters for the convolution of arbitrary negative binomial random variables.
nb_sum_exact	Implements Furman's exact PMF for the evaluation of the sum of arbitrary NB random variables. Called by other functions. Not intended to be run alone.
nb_sum_moments	Implements the method of moments approximation for the sum of arbitrary NB random variables. Called by other functions. Not intended to be run alone.
nb_sum_saddlepoint	Implements the saddlepoint approximation for the sum of arbitrary NB random variables. Called by other functions. Not intended to be run alone.
pnbconv	Calculates the CDF for the convolution of arbitrary negative binomial random variables.
qnbconv	Calculates the quantile function for the convolution of arbitrary negative binomial random variables.
rnbconv	Generates random samples from the convolution of arbitrary negative binomial random variables.
