Stan distributions. 15. Normal distribution Probability density function If μ ∈ R and σ ∈ R +, then for y ∈ R, Normal (y | μ, σ) = 1 2 π σ exp (1 2 (y μ σ) 2) Distribution statement y ~ normal (mu, sigma) Increment This is the reference for the functions defined in the Stan math library and available in the Stan programming language. Want to know more about Stan functions? Go to Stan Functions Reference. Lognormal distribution Probability density function If μ ∈ R and σ ∈ R +, then for y ∈ R +, LogNormal (y | μ, σ) = 1 2 π σ 1 y exp (1 2 (log y μ σ) 2) Distribution statement y ~ lognormal (mu, sigma A web app to visualize distributions in Stan. Available since 2. Stan also provides the Dirichlet-multinomial distribution, which generalizes the Beta-binomial distribution to more than two categories. Chapter 10 Custom distributions in Stan Stan includes a large number of distributions, but what happens if we need a distribution that is not provided? In many cases, we can simply build a custom distribution by combining the ever-growing number of functions available in the Stan language. Continuous Distributions Positive Continuous Distributions Positive Continuous Distributions The positive continuous probability functions have support on the positive real numbers. real std_normal_cdf (reals y) The cumulative standard normal distribution of y; std_normal_cdf will underflow to 0 for y y below -37.
