dvariable dstudent_t (const dvar_vector &residual, const dvar_vector &df)
 

Detailed Description

Student T density functions.

This file contains the negative loglikelihood functions for the Students'-T distribution. The function dstudent_t is overloaded to accommodate variable and data objects.

The negative log likelihood function is implemented as:

\[ -\ln\left(\Gamma\left(\frac{\nu+1}{2}\right)\right) +0.5\ln(\nu\pi)+\ln\left(\Gamma\left(\frac{\nu}{2}\right)\right) +\frac{\nu+1}{2}\ln\left(1+\frac{t^2}{\nu}\right) \]

where $\nu$ is the degrees of freedom and $t$ is the residual.
