/**
 * This class implements noncentral chi square random variate generators 
 * using the additive property of the noncentral chi square distribution. It uses the following algorithm: generate a real
 *  
 * X∼N((λ)1/2, 1) from a normal distribution with variance 1, 
 * generate a real 
 * Y∼Γ((ν - 1)/2, 1/2) from a gamma distribution,
 * then return X2 + Y. Here ν is the number of degrees of freedom and 
 * λ is the noncentrality parameter.
 * 
 * 

* To generate the normal variates, one uses the fast * acceptance-complement ratio method in * (see class {@link umontreal.iro.lecuyer.randvar.NormalACRGen NormalACRGen}). * To generate the gamma variates, one uses acceptance-rejection for α < 1, * and acceptance-complement for * α >= 1, as proposed in * (see class {@link umontreal.iro.lecuyer.randvar.GammaAcceptanceRejectionGen GammaAcceptanceRejectionGen}). * *

* This noncentral chi square generator is faster than the generator * {@link umontreal.iro.lecuyer.randvar.ChiSquareNoncentralPoisGen ChiSquareNoncentralPoisGen} . * For small λ, it is nearly twice as fast. As λ increases, * it is still faster but not as much. * */ public class ChiSquareNoncentralGamGen extends ChiSquareNoncentralGen { private double racLam = -1.0; /** * Creates a noncentral chi square random variate generator with * with ν = nu degrees of freedom and noncentrality parameter * λ = lambda using stream stream, as described above. * */ public ChiSquareNoncentralGamGen (RandomStream stream, double nu, double lambda) { super (stream, null); setParams (nu, lambda); racLam = Math.sqrt(lambda); } public double nextDouble() { return gamGen (stream, nu, racLam); } /** * Generates a variate from the noncentral chi square * distribution with parameters ν = nu and λ = lambda using stream stream, as described above. * */ public static double nextDouble (RandomStream stream, double nu, double lambda) { double racLam = Math.sqrt(lambda); return gamGen (stream, nu, racLam); } //>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> P R I V A T E M E T H O D S <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< private static double gamGen (RandomStream s, double nu, double racLam) { // racLam = sqrt(lambda) double x = NormalACRGen.nextDouble (s, racLam, 1.0); double y = GammaAcceptanceRejectionGen.nextDouble(s, 0.5*(nu - 1.0), 0.5); return x*x + y; } }
