Overview

About

Maintained by Stefano DamatoFirst published 2026-07-152 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Provides density, distribution function, quantile function, and random generation for the Tweedie distribution under the compound Poisson-Gamma parameterisation with power parameter in (1, 2). The density is evaluated using the series expansion of Dunn and Smyth (2005) doi:10.1007/s11222-005-4070-y, implemented in C++ via 'Rcpp' and 'RcppArmadillo' for performance. A constructor compatible with the 'distributional' package is also provided for use in tidy modelling workflows.
