rsem.emmusig: Robust mean and covariance matrix using Huber-type weight

Description

Robust mean and covariance matrix using Huber-type weight.

Usage

rsem.emmusig(xpattern, varphi=.1, max.it=1000, st='i')

Value

err

Error code. 0: good. 1: maximum iterations are exceeded.

mu

Mean vector

sigma

Covariance matrix

Arguments

xpattern

Missing data pattern output from rsem.pattern.

varphi

Proportion of data to be down-weighted. Default is 0.1.

max.it

Maximum number of iterations for EM. Default is 1000

st

Starting values for EM algorithm. The default is 0 for mean and I for covariance. Alternative, the starting values can be estimated according to MCD.
