22.2 Beta proportion distribution

22.2.1 Probability density function

If μ(0,1) and κR+, then for θ(0,1), Beta_Proportion(θ|μ,κ)=1B(μκ,(1μ)κ)θμκ1(1θ)(1μ)κ1, where the beta function B() is as defined in section combinatorial functions.

Warning: If θ=0 or θ=1, then the probability is 0 and the log probability is . Similarly, the distribution requires μ(0,1) and strictly positive parameter, κ>0.

22.2.2 Sampling statement
