Description
Fit Laplace density. Read data from files or from standard input. With output option '4' prints the
log-likelihood as a function of m
input.
Options: -O output type (default 0)
0 parameters m a and negative log-likelihood
1 the estimated distribution function computed on the provided points
2 the estimated density function computed on the provided points
3 parameters m, a and their standard errors and correlations
4 log-likelihood profile
-m the mode is not estimated but is set to the value provided
-x initial value of m or plot range if output type is '4' (default 0)
-n number of plotted points if output type is '4' (default 10)
Examples
gblafit -m 1 <file
estimate a with m=1
gblafit -O 4 -x -1,1 <file
print the log-likelihood on a regular grid from -1 to 1. The grid has 10 points.
