min.lcModels: Select the lcModel with the lowest metric value

In latrend: A Framework for Clustering Longitudinal Data

Select the lcModel with the lowest metric value

Description

Select the lcModel with the lowest metric value

Usage

min(x, name, ...)

Arguments

x	The lcModels object
name	The name of the internal metric.
...	Additional arguments.

Value

The lcModel with the lowest metric value

Functionality

• Print an argument summary for each of the models.

• Convert to a data.frame of method arguments.

• Subset the list.

• Compute an internal metric or external metric.

• Obtain the best model according to minimizing or maximizing a metric.

• Obtain the summed estimation time.

• Plot a metric across a variable.

• Plot the cluster trajectories.
