Hello,

Or, if you want to pass a vector of quantiles to pmix,



pmix <- function(x, lower.tail = TRUE){
        p <- sapply(x, function(.x) integrate(dmix, lower = 0, upper = 
.x)$value)
        if(lower.tail) p else 1 - p
}

Hello,

Try the following.


dmix <- function(x){
     dens <- function(x, df) dchisq(x^2, df = df)*2*x
     0.5*dens(x, df = 1) + 0.5*dens(x, df = 2)
}
pmix <- function(x, lower.tail = TRUE){
     p <- integrate(dmix, lower = 0, upper = x)
     if(lower.tail) p$value else 1 - p$value
}

quant <- 1
pmix(quant, lower.tail = FALSE)


Hope this helps,

Hello, R users!

I am struggling with the following problem:

I need to compute a P-value for a mixture of two chi-squared
distributions. My P-value is given by:

P = 0.5*prob(sqrt(chi2(1)) <= x) + 0.5*prob(sqrt(chi2(2)) <= x)

In words, I need to compute the p-value for 50–50 mixture of the square
root of a chi-squared random variable with 1 degree of freedom and the
square root of a chi-squared with two degrees of freedom.

Although I can quickly simulate data, the P-values I am looking for
are at
the tail of the distribution, that is, alpha levels below 10^-7. Hence,
simulation is not efficient.

Are you aware of smart approach?


All the best,

Tiago
