PenalisedLikelihood function

Calculate the parameters that maximise the penalised likelihood.

Used to find suitable starting parameters for nonconjugate mixtures. For some mixing distributions this hasn't been implemented yet.

## S3 method for class 'beta'
PenalisedLikelihood(mdObj, x)

PenalisedLikelihood(mdObj, x)

## Default S3 method:
PenalisedLikelihood(mdObj, x)

Arguments

• mdObj: Mixing distribution object
• x: Data
