Hi
I am using GEV for classification. Here in the example below, I wanted to check few things like logcdf and cdf works for GenExtreme. Though, now I can able to find logcdf or cdf, some logcdf values are coming -inf (i.e. cdf 0) which should be 0 (i.e. cdf 1).
My Random Variable is GEV(mu = 0, sigma = 1, xi = -0.5). So, range of the RV is (-inf, -1/xi)=(-inf, 2). So, logcdf should come as 0 (i.e. cdf 1) for RV>=2. But see the below example it’s -inf for RV>=2.
Please help to find out what is wrong and how solve it! I could make some conditions for checking and could make 0 to 1 but I will run it inside pm.Model(),this kind of conditions can make it slow. Thank you.
import numpy as np
import pymc as pm
import pymc_experimental.distributions as pmx
rv = pmx.GenExtreme.dist(mu=0, sigma=1, xi=-0.5) # range of x: (-inf, 2)
x = np.array([-100,-50,-40, -30, -10,-5,-2,-1,0,1,1.5,1.7,1.9,1.99,2,3,4,5])
lcdf_gev = pm.logcdf(rv, x)
print(x)
[-100. -50. -40. -30. -10. -5. -2. -1. 0.
1. 1.5 1.7 1.9 1.99 2. 3. 4. 5. ]
print(lcdf_gev.eval())
