Calculates the Log-Likelihood values for the Pareto/NBD model with and without covariates.

The function pnbd_nocov_LL_ind calculates the individual LogLikelihood values for each customer for the given parameters.

The function pnbd_nocov_LL_sum calculates the LogLikelihood value summed across customers for the given parameters.

The function pnbd_staticcov_LL_ind calculates the individual LogLikelihood values for each customer for the given parameters and covariates.

The function pnbd_staticcov_LL_sum calculates the individual LogLikelihood values summed across customers.

pnbd_nocov_LL_ind(vLogparams, vX, vT_x, vT_cal)

pnbd_nocov_LL_sum(vLogparams, vX, vT_x, vT_cal)

pnbd_staticcov_LL_ind(vParams, vX, vT_x, vT_cal, mCov_life, mCov_trans)

pnbd_staticcov_LL_sum(vParams, vX, vT_x, vT_cal, mCov_life, mCov_trans)

## Arguments

vLogparams vector with the Pareto/NBD model parameters at log scale. See Details. Frequency vector of length n counting the numbers of purchases. Recency vector of length n. Vector of length n indicating the total number of periods of observation. vector with the parameters for the Pareto/NBD model at log scale and the static covariates at original scale. See Details. Matrix containing the covariates data affecting the lifetime process. One column for each covariate. Matrix containing the covariates data affecting the transaction process. One column for each covariate.

## Value

Returns the respective Log-Likelihood value(s) for the Pareto/NBD model with or without covariates.

## Details

vLogparams is a vector with model parameters r, alpha_0, s, beta_0 at log-scale, in this order.

vParams is vector with the Pareto/NBD model parameters at log scale, followed by the parameters for the lifetime covariates at original scale and then followed by the parameters for the transaction covariates at original scale

mCov_trans is a matrix containing the covariates data of the time-invariant covariates that affect the transaction process. Each column represents a different covariate. For every column a gamma parameter needs to added to vParams at the respective position.

mCov_life is a matrix containing the covariates data of the time-invariant covariates that affect the lifetime process. Each column represents a different covariate. For every column a gamma parameter needs to added to vParams at the respective position.
