How to generate samples from a modified exponential density?
显示 更早的评论
Hi everyone, The standard form of an exponential density is f(x|lambda)= lambda*exp(-x/lambda) if x>=0 and f(x|lambda)=0 if x<0.
I want to generate samples from the following density f(x|lambda, b)= lambda*exp(-(x-b)/lambda) if x>b and f(x|lambda,b)=0 if x<=b. Where b is a user-specified parameter.
Can anyone here suggest me how to do this ?
Best regards,

This works:
lambda = 0.1;
m = 1;
n = 100;
expshft = @(b,lambda,x) (x>=b) .* lambda.*exp(-max(0, (x-b))./(b+lambda));
x = 25*rand(m,n);
R2 = expshft(10,lambda,x);
figure(1)
plot(x, R2,'*b')
grid
The actual function is ‘expshift’. The rest is demonstration code to show how it works.

You can generate uniform random numbers using the rand function and apply it to your modified density function.
