lndMvn
computes the log of a Multivariate Normal Density.
lndMvn(x, mu, rooti)
x |
density ordinate |
mu |
mu vector |
rooti |
inv of Upper Triangular Cholesky root of Sigma |
z ~ N(mu,Σ)
log density value
This routine is a utility routine that does not check the input arguments for proper dimensions and type.
