size.search: Size Search Algorithm

In gabybudel/DBHC: Sequence Clustering with Discrete-Output HMMs

Size Search Algorithm

Description

The size search algorithm finds the optimal number of HMM states for a set of sequences and returns both the optimal hmm object and the corresponding number of hidden states. Used in select.seeds.

Usage

size.search(sequences, log_space = FALSE, print = FALSE)

Arguments

sequences	An stslist object (see seqdef) of sequences with discrete observations.
log_space	Logical, parameter provided to fit_model for whether to use optimization in log space or not.
print	Logical, whether to print intermediate steps or not.

Value

A list with the optimal number of HMM states and the optimal hmm object.
