Dear Experts, I would like to fit a mixed effects GLM to some data. My dependent variable has a half-gaussian normal distribution. I have seen that I can specify my custom link function in fitglme, but I need to specify the following parameters in addition to the distribution: S.Derivative — Derivative S.SecondDerivative — Second derivative S.Inverse — Inverse of link I found that I can make a half normal distribution using makedist, but could anyone help me calculate these other parameters for a half-gaussian distribution so that I can populate S correctly? Thank you very much. Leonardo Tozzi

Dear Experts,

I would like to fit a mixed effects GLM to some data. My dependent variable has a half-gaussian normal distribution. I have seen that I can specify my custom link function in fitglme, but I need to specify the following parameters in addition to the distribution:

S.Derivative — Derivative
S.SecondDerivative — Second derivative
S.Inverse — Inverse of link

I found that I can make a half normal distribution using makedist, but could anyone help me calculate these other parameters for a half-gaussian distribution so that I can populate S correctly?

Thank you very much.
