Computes the survival S(dose) = 1 - P(dose) = M(alpha, alpha + beta, -dose) of the exact beta-Poisson dose-response model (Kummer confluent hypergeometric form), vectorized over dose.

Usage

exact_beta_poisson_survival(dose, alpha, beta)

Arguments

dose

A non-negative numeric vector of doses.

alpha

A positive shape parameter of the Beta(alpha, beta) infectivity distribution.

beta

A positive shape parameter of the Beta(alpha, beta) infectivity distribution.

Value

A numeric vector of survival probabilities 1 - P(dose).
