glcSplit: Gaussian Latent Class Splitter

Description

Splits a data set into two via a Gaussian mixture models

Usage

glcSplit(x, initFunctions, weight = NULL, index = NULL, level = 0, wthresh = 1e-09, verbose = TRUE, nthresh = 5, splitCriterion = glcSplitCriterionBIC)

Arguments

x
Data matrix (n x j) on which to perform clustering
initFunctions
List of functions of type “glcInitialize...” for initializing latent class model. See glcInitializeFanny for an example of arguments and return values.
weight
Weight corresponding to the indices passed (see index). Defaults to 1 for all indices
index
Row indices of data matrix to include. Defaults to all (1 to n).
level
Current level.
wthresh
Weight threshold for filtering data to children. Indices having weight less than this value will not be passed to children nodes.
verbose
Level of verbosity. Default=2 (too much). 0 for quiet.
nthresh
Total weight in node required for node to be a candidate for splitting. Nodes with weight less than this value will never split.
splitCriterion
Function of type “glcSplitCriterion...” for determining whether split should occur. See glcSplitCriterionBIC for an example of arguments and return values.

Value

A list of objects representing split.
