hnlike
Negative log-likelihood for the half-normal distribution.
nlogL = hnlike (params, x)
returns the negative
log likelihood of the data in x corresponding to the half-normal
distribution with (1) location parameter mu and (2) scale parameter
sigma given in the two-element vector params.
[nlogL, acov] = hnlike (params, x)
returns
the inverse of Fisher’s information matrix, acov. If the input
parameter values in params are the maximum likelihood estimates, the
diagonal elements of params are their asymptotic variances.
The half-normal CDF is only defined for x >= mu
.
