HDclust (version 1.0.4)

vbSearchControl: Parameters for variable block structure search.

Description

This function creates a list with parameters for the search of a variable block structure used as an argument for hmmvbTrain.

Usage

vbSearchControl(
  perm = NULL,
  numstPerDim = NULL,
  dim = NULL,
  maxDim = 10,
  minDim = 1,
  nperm = 1,
  relax = FALSE
)

Value

The named list with parameters.

Arguments

perm

A list of integer vectors specifying variable permutations. If provided, the argument dim must be supplied.

numstPerDim

An integer vector of length maxDim specifying a map from the variable block dimensionality to the number of states in the block. kth value in the vector corresponds to number of states for dimensionality k.

dim

Data dimensionality. Must be provided with perm argument, otherwise is ignored.

maxDim

Maximum variable block dimension.

minDim

Minimum variable block dimension. Should be an integer equal to 1 or 2.

nperm

The number of variable permutations. This parameter is ignored if permutations are provided in perm argument.

relax

A logical value indicating whether or not variable block structure search will be performed under less restricting conditions.

Examples

# setting up permutations
perm <- list(c(1,2,3), c(1,3,2), c(3,2,1))
searchControl <- vbSearchControl(perm=perm, dim=3)

# setting up a map between block dimensionality and number of states
searchControl <- vbSearchControl(maxDim=5, numstPerDim=c(3,4,5,6,7))
