mclust (version 3.4.7)

estepE: E-step in the EM algorithm for a parameterized Gaussian mixture model.

Description

Implements the expectation step in the EM algorithm for a parameterized Gaussian mixture model.

Usage

estepE(data, parameters, warn = NULL, ...)
estepV(data, parameters, warn = NULL, ...)
estepEII(data, parameters, warn = NULL, ...)
estepVII(data, parameters, warn = NULL, ...)
estepEEI(data, parameters, warn = NULL, ...)
estepVEI(data, parameters, warn = NULL, ...)
estepEVI(data, parameters, warn = NULL, ...)
estepVVI(data, parameters, warn = NULL, ...)
estepEEE(data, parameters, warn = NULL, ...)
estepEEV(data, parameters, warn = NULL, ...)
estepVEV(data, parameters, warn = NULL, ...)
estepVVV(data, parameters, warn = NULL, ...)

Arguments

data

A numeric vector, matrix, or data frame of observations. Categorical variables are not allowed. If a matrix or data frame, rows correspond to observations and columns correspond to variables.

parameters

The parameters of the model:

• An argument describing the variance (depends on the model):[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

warn

A logical value indicating whether or certain warnings should be issued. The default is set in .Mclust$warn.

...

Catches unused arguments in indirect or list calls via do.call.

Value

• A list including the following components:
• modelName
  Character string identifying the model.
• z
  A matrix whose [i,k]th entry is the conditional probability of the ith observation belonging to the kth component of the mixture.
• parameters
  The input parameters.
• loglik
  The logliklihood for the data in the mixture model.
• Attribute
  • "WARNING": An appropriate warning if problems are encountered in the computations.
