⚠️There's a newer version (1.5) of this package. Take me there.

bclust (version 1.4)

Bayesian clustering using spike-and-slab hierarchical model, suitable for clustering high-dimensional data.

Description

The package builds a dendrogram with log posterior as a natural distance defined by the model. It is also capable to computing Bayesian discrimination probabilities equivalent to the implemented Bayesian clustering. Spike-and-Slab models are adopted in a way to be able to produce an importance measure for clustering and discriminant variables. The method works properly for data with small sample size and high dimensions. The model parameter estimation maybe difficult, depending on data structure and the chosen distribution family.
