statsmodels.genmod.families.family.InverseGaussian

class statsmodels.genmod.families.family.InverseGaussian(link=<class 'statsmodels.genmod.families.links.inverse_squared'>)[source]

InverseGaussian exponential family.

Parameters:

link : a link instance, optional

The default link for the inverse Gaussian family is the inverse squared link. Available links are inverse_squared, inverse, log, and identity. See statsmodels.family.links for more information.

Notes

The inverse Guassian distribution is sometimes referred to in the literature as the wald distribution.

Attributes

InverseGaussian.link (a link instance) The link function of the inverse Gaussian instance
InverseGaussian.variance (varfunc instance) variance is an instance of statsmodels.family.varfuncs.mu_cubed
