MSGHD: Mixture of multiple scaled generalized hyperbolic...

In MixGHD: Model Based Clustering, Classification and Discriminant Analysis Using the Mixture of Generalized Hyperbolic Distributions

Description

Carries out model-based clustering using the mixture of multiple scaled generalized hyperbolic distributions.

Usage

MSGHD(data=NULL,gpar0=NULL,G=2,max.iter=100,label=NULL,eps=1e-2,
	method="km",scale=TRUE,nr=10, modelSel="AIC",seed=12345)

Arguments

data	A n x p matrix or data frame such that rows correspond to observations and columns correspond to variables.
gpar0	(optional) A list containing the initial parameters of the mixture model. See the 'Details' section.
G	The range of values for the number of clusters.
max.iter	(optional) A numerical parameter giving the maximum number of iterations each EM algorithm is allowed to use.
label	( optional) A n dimensional vector, if label[i]=k then observation belongs to group k, if NULL then the data has no known groups.
eps	(optional) A number specifying the epsilon value for the convergence criteria used in the EM algorithms. For each algorithm, the criterion is based on the difference between the log-likelihood at an iteration and an asymptotic estimate of the log-likelihood at that iteration. This asymptotic estimate is based on the Aitken acceleration.
method	( optional) A string indicating the initialization criterion, if not specified kmeans clustering is used. Alternative methods are: hierarchical "hierarchical", random "random", and model based "modelBased" clustering
scale	( optional) A logical value indicating whether or not the data should be scaled, true by default.
nr	( optional) A number indicating the number of starting value when random is used, 10 by default.
modelSel	( optional) A string indicating the model selection criterion, if not specified AIC is used. Alternative methods are: BIC,ICL, and AIC3
seed	( optional) A number giving the pseudo-random number seed to be used. If NULL a pseudo-random number is used, by default 12345.

Details

The arguments gpar0, if specified, is a list structure containing at least one p dimensional vector mu, alpha and phi, a pxp matrix gamma, and a px2 matrix cpl containing the vector omega and the vector lambda.

Value

A list with components

index	Value of the index used for model selection (AIC or ICL or BIC or AIC3) for each G,the index used is specified by the user, if not specified AIC is used.
model	A list containing the following elements for the selected model
BIC	Bayesian information criterion value.
ICL	ICL index.
AIC	AIC index.
AIC3	AIC3 index.
gpar	A list of the model parameters
loglik	The log-likelihood values.
map	A vector of integers indicating the maximum a posteriori classifications for the best model.
z	A matrix giving the raw values upon which map is based.
