fitdist函数中的误差:函数mle无法估计参数，错误代码1(瑞利分布)

Question

我试图通过使用来自fitdist包的fitdistrplus函数将我的数据与瑞利分布相匹配。

x <- c(19.000000,23.000000,26.000000,45.000000,8.050000,46.900000,1.268333,30.000000,

       19.000000,29.000000,17.000000,42.000000,19.000000,10.000000,53.000000,2.550000,

       3.166667,4.416667,17.016667,2.433333,2.713333,8.633333,3.150000,1.183333,

       26.000000,3.316667,51.000000,13.000000,34.000000,11.650000,49.000000,12.000000,

       6.216667,17.000000,1.083333,19.000000,48.000000,15.000000,1.266667,54.000000,
       32.000000,3.616667,6.666667,1.600000,2.083333,6.933333,33.033333,1.883333,
       1.000000,3.072222,49.000000,1.400000)
dat <- data.frame(x)

# Generate gamma rvs
den <- density(x)
orig <- data.frame(x = den$x, y = den$y)

fit.params.2 <- fitdistrplus::fitdist(dat$x, "rayleigh", start = list(sigma = 1))

然后出现一个错误：

Error in fitdistrplus::fitdist(dat$x, "rayleigh", start = list(sigma = 1)) : 
   the function mle failed to estimate the parameters, 
                with the error code 1

这个问题有什么解决办法吗？谢谢你的帮助。

Answer 1

有两个问题。(1)瑞利分布似乎不适合数据(见下面的图输出)，(2)您需要一个更好的起始值。由于sigma与瑞利分布的平均值成正比(请参阅维基百科)，请尝试：

library(fitdistrplus)
library(extraDistr)

fit <- fitdist(dat$x, "rayleigh", start = list(sigma = mean(dat$x)))
fit
## Fitting of the distribution ' rayleigh ' by maximum likelihood 
## Parameters:
##       estimate Std. Error
## sigma 15.00063   0.749935

plot(fit)
