Arguments

models

a list containing MOFAmodel objects.

a single MOFAmodel with the best ELBO statistics from the provided list

Examples

# NOT RUN {
# Simulate Data
data <- makeExampleData()
# Create MOFA model
MOFAobject <- createMOFAobject(data)
# Prepare MOFA model
MOFAobject <- prepareMOFA(MOFAobject)
# Train several instances of MOFA models
n_inits <- 3 
MOFAlist <- lapply(seq_len(n_inits), function(i) runMOFA(MOFAobject, outfile=tempfile()))
selectModel(MOFAlist)
# }
