Fitting an Inverse Gamma Distribution
...ch a package using findFn('fit Inverse Gamma') from the 'sos' package and was therefore hoping someone might be aware of such a function? Secondly, is there a way to shift the pdf (code below) to the right (rather than the data to the left)? I tried: par(new=T) shift<-1 hist(iniSal_US_forHist,breaks=seq(1.1,21,by=0.625),col="grey",freq=F,xlim=c(0-shift,21-shift),plot=F) curve(dinvgamma(x,scale=11.835,shape=4.4242),from=0,to=20,add=T,col="purple",lwd=2) but this failed in shifting the curve. More broadly, the data plotted in the histogram represents a calibration ta...

Fitting an Inverse Gamma Distribution to Survey Data
...amma-td825481.html#a825482 But I think I'm misunderstanding the suggestion made in that post. Is there way to estimate the shape and rate parameters for an inverse-gamma and then plot the PDF as I have done below using other more readily available pdf's in R?
