Arguments

fit	An object storing the output of the function MEclustnet.
Y	The n x n binary adjacency matrix, with 0 down the diagonal, that was passed to MEclustnet.

Value

A list with:

AICM

The value of the AICM criterion for the fitted model.

BICM

The value of the BICM criterion for the fitted model.

BICMCMC

The value of the BICMCMC criterion for the fitted model.

betamean

The posterior mean vector of the regression coefficients for the link probabilities model.

betasd

The standard deviation of the posterior distribution of beta.

taumean

A matrix with G rows, detailing the posterior mean of the regression coefficients for the mixing proportions model.

tausd
