extra-families function

Extra family objects

Family objects not in the set of default family objects.

Student_t(link = "identity", nu = 3)

Arguments

• link: Name of the link function. In contrast to the default family

  objects, this has to be a character string here.

• nu: Degrees of freedom for the Student-$t$ distribution.

Returns

A family object analogous to those described in family.

Note

Support for the Student_t() family is still experimental.
