RPMM (version 1.20)

glcSplitCriterionLevelWtdBIC: Gaussian RPMM Split Criterion: Level-Weighted BIC

Description

Split criterion function: use a level-weighted version of BIC to determine split; there is an additional penalty incorporated for deep recursion.

Usage

glcSplitCriterionLevelWtdBIC(llike1, llike2, weight, ww, J, level)

Arguments

llike1
one-class likelihood.
llike2
two-class likelihood.
weight
weights from RPMM node.
ww
“ww” from RPMM node.
J
Number of items.
level
Node level.

Value

bic1
One-class BIC, with additional penalty for deeper levels
bic2
Two-class BIC, with additional penalty for deeper levels
split
TRUE=split the node, FALSE=do not split the node.

Details

This is a function of the form “glcSplitCriterion...”, which is required to return a list with at least a boolean value split, along with supporting information. See glcTree for example of using “glcSplitCriterion...” to control split.
