simE: Simulate from a Parameterized MVN Mixture Model

Description

Simulate data from a parameterized MVN mixture model.

Usage

simE(parameters, n, seed = 0, ...)
simV(parameters, n, seed = 0, ...)
simEII(parameters, n, seed = 0, ...)
simVII(parameters, n, seed = 0, ...)
simEEI(parameters, n, seed = 0, ...)
simVEI(parameters, n, seed = 0, ...)
simEVI(parameters, n, seed = 0, ...)
simVVI(parameters, n, seed = 0, ...)
simEEE(parameters, n, seed = 0, ...)
simEEV(parameters, n, seed = 0, ...)
simVEV(parameters, n, seed = 0, ...)
simVVV(parameters, n, seed = 0, ...)

Arguments

parameters

A list with the following components: [object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

n

An integer specifying the number of data points to be simulated.

seed

A integer for specifying a seed for random class assignment. The default value is 0.

...

Catches unused arguments in indirect or list calls via do.call.

Value

• A matrix in which first column is the classification and the remaining columns are the n observations simulated from the specified MVN mixture model.
• Attributes:
  • "modelName"A character string indicating the variance model used for the simulation.

Details

This function can be used with an indirect or list call using do.call, allowing the output of e.g. mstep, em me, Mclust, to be passed directly without the need to specify individual parameters as arguments.

Examples

d <- 2
G <- 2
scale <- 1
shape <- c(1, 9)

O1 <- diag(2)
O2 <- diag(2)[,c(2,1)]
O <- array(cbind(O1,O2), c(2, 2, 2))
O

variance <- list(d= d, G = G, scale = scale, shape = shape, orientation = O)
mu <- matrix(0, d, G) ## center at the origin
simdat <- simEEV(n=200,parameters=list(pro=c(1,1),mean=mu,variance=variance))

cl <- simdat[,1]

sigma <- array(apply(O, 3, function(x,y) crossprod(x*y), 
                 y = sqrt(scale*shape)), c(2,2,2))
paramList <- list(mu = mu, sigma = sigma)
coordProj( simdat, paramList = paramList, classification = cl)
