maxframe.tensor.special.gammaincc(a, b, **kwargs)[source]#

gammainc(a, x, out=None)

Regularized lower incomplete gamma function.

It is defined as

\[P(a, x) = \frac{1}{\Gamma(a)} \int_0^x t^{a - 1}e^{-t} dt\]

for \(a > 0\) and \(x \geq 0\). See [dlmf] for details.

Parameters:

  • a (array_like) – Positive parameter

  • x (array_like) – Nonnegative argument

  • out (ndarray, optional) – Optional output array for the function values

Returns:

Values of the lower incomplete gamma function

Return type:

scalar or ndarray

gammaincinv

inverse of the regularized lower incomplete gamma function

gammainccinv

inverse of the regularized upper incomplete gamma function

Notes

The function satisfies the relation gammainc(a, x) + gammaincc(a, x) = 1 where gammaincc is the regularized upper incomplete gamma function.

The implementation largely follows that of [boost].
