Compute the inverse of a one-parameter Box-Cox transformation for 1+x.

To compute the inverse of a one-parameter Box-Cox transformation, one finds the x such that

Installation

npm install @stdlib/math-base-special-boxcox1pinv

Usage

var boxcox1pinv = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-boxcox1pinv' );

boxcox1pinv( y, lambda )

Computes the inverse of a one-parameter Box-Cox transformation for 1+x.

var v = boxcox1pinv( 1.0, 2.5 );
// returns ~0.6505

v = boxcox1pinv( 4.0, 2.5 );
// returns ~1.6095

v = boxcox1pinv( 10.0, 2.5 );
// returns ~2.6812

v = boxcox1pinv( 2.0, 0.0 );
// returns ~6.3891

v = boxcox1pinv( -1.0, 2.5 );
// returns NaN

v = boxcox1pinv( 0.0, -1.0 );
// returns 0.0

v = boxcox1pinv( 1.0, NaN );
// returns NaN

v = boxcox1pinv( NaN, 3.1 );
// returns NaN

Examples

var incrspace = require( '@stdlib/array-base-incrspace' );
var boxcox1pinv = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-boxcox1pinv' );

var y = incrspace( -1.0, 10.0, 1.0 );
var l = incrspace( -0.5, 5.0, 0.5 );

var b;
var i;
var j;
for ( i = 0; i < y.length; i++ ) {
    for ( j = 0; j < l.length; j++ ) {
        b = boxcox1pinv( y[ i ], l[ j ] );
        console.log( 'boxcox1pinv(%d, %d) = %d', y[ i ], l[ j ], b );
    }
}
