Rsubbotools: Fast Estimation of Subbottin and AEP Distributions (Generalized
Error Distribution)
Create densities, probabilities, random numbers, quantiles, and maximum likelihood estimation for several
distributions, mainly the symmetric and asymmetric power exponential (AEP), a.k.a. the Subbottin family of
distributions, also known as the generalized error distribution.
Estimation is made using the design of Bottazzi (2004) <https://ideas.repec.org/p/ssa/lemwps/2004-14.html>, where
the likelihood is maximized by several optimization procedures using the 'GNU Scientific Library (GSL)', translated to 'C++'
code, which makes it both fast and accurate. The package also provides methods for the gamma, Laplace, and Asymmetric
Laplace distributions.
