Generates exponential distribution parameter estimates and confidence intervals.

Syntax

Mu, MuCI = ExpFit(Points)

Argument

Name

Description

 

Points

A vector of positive data points.

Outputs

Name

Description

 

Mu

Estimate of the distribution mean. A scalar.

 

MuCI

95% confidence interval of the estimate of Mu. A two element row vector containing the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval.

Example

For a given data set, find Mu and the confidence intervals assuming an exponential distribution.

 

Syntax

 

 

mu, muCI = ExpFit(data)

 

Results

 

 

Mu is the maximum likelihood estimate of the mean.

 

MuCI is a two element vector containing the 95% confidence interval of Mu.
