ISOpureS2.model_optimize.opt_cc: Optimize the tumor-specific cancer profiles in step 2

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s)

Description

Optimize the tumor-specific cancer profiles. Because cc is constrained (each cc_i are parameters of multinomial/discrete distribution), we don't directly optimize the likelihood function w.r.t. cc, but we perform change of variables to do unconstrained optimization. We therefore store these unconstrained variables in the field "cc_weights", and update these variables.
