Model driver for fitting mixtures of multinomial logit models.
FLXMRmultinom(formula = . ~ ., ...)A formula which is interpreted relative to the formula
specified in the call to flexmix using
update.formula. Default is to use the original
flexmix model
formula.
Additional arguments to be passed to nnet.default.
Returns an object of class FLXMRmultinom.
To ensure identifiability repeated measurements are necessary. Sufficient conditions are given in Gruen and Leisch (2008).
The M-step is performed using nnet.default.
