16.3 Exponentially modified normal distribution

16.3.1 Probability density function

If \(\mu \in \mathbb{R}\), \(\sigma \in \mathbb{R}^+\), and \(\lambda \in \mathbb{R}^+\), then for \(y \in \mathbb{R}\), \[ \text{ExpModNormal}(y|\mu,\sigma,\lambda) = \frac{\lambda}{2} \ \exp \left(\frac{\lambda}{2} \left(2\mu + \lambda \sigma^2 - 2y\right)\right) \text{erfc}\left(\frac{\mu + \lambda\sigma^2 - y}{\sqrt{2}\sigma}\right) . \]

16.3.2 Sampling statement

y ~ exp_mod_normal(mu, sigma, lambda)

Increment target log probability density with exp_mod_normal_lupdf(y | mu, sigma, lambda).
