Compute Log of Inverted Wishart Density

Description

lndIWishart computes the log of an Inverted Wishart density.

Usage

lndIWishart(nu, S, IW)

Arguments

nu d.f. parameter
S "location" parameter
IW ordinate for density evaluation

Details

Z = Wishart(nu,V^{-1})^{-1}, Z ~ Inverted Wishart(nu,V).
lndIWishart computes the complete log-density, including normalizing constants.

Value

log density value

Warning

This routine is a utility routine that does not check the input arguments for proper dimensions and type.
