Comparing normal and t probabilities
Here, you will calculate the volume under multivariate t-distributions for two different degrees of freedom compared to a multivariate normal distribution. Fix the location parameter, the mean in case of normal and non-centrality in case of t-distribution, to mu.sim
and variance-covariance matrix to sigma.sim
for all distributions. Calculate the volumes between \(\begin{pmatrix} -5 \\ -5\end{pmatrix}\) and \(\begin{pmatrix} 5 \\ 5 \end{pmatrix}\) for
- (a) A multivariate t, \(df = 5\).
- (b) A multivariate t, \(df = 1\).
- (c) A multivariate normal.
What is the order of the volumes?
