Dear all,
I am trying to fit an inverse Gamma distribution to a random sample.Initially, I coded the inverse Gamma distribution and then import it to the dfittool. The problem is that when I attempt to fit the distribution and obtain the mle parameters it is not listed there. There are only a few other distributions in the drop down list that you are allowed to fit to. Does this indicate an error or that the inverse gamma is not a good fit?
I also get an error when importing the distribution:
??? Java exception occurred: java.lang.NullPointerException at com.mathworks.toolbox.stats.DistributionFitting.addFitType(DistributionFitting.java:296)
Error in ==> dfsetdistributions at 20 dft.addFitType('addparamfit',a.name, a.code, a.pnames, a.pdescription, … Error in ==> dfcustomdist at 99 dfsetdistributions(dft,dists);
??? Error while evaluating uimenu Callback
I am confused and anyone's help will be appreciated.
BEst Regards,
Konstantinos
