argcheck_diag.var

Check whether argument 'diag.var' was provided.
If not, propose default value.

Provides two methods for segmentation and joint segmentation/clustering of
bivariate time-series. Originally intended for ecological segmentation
(home-range and behavioural modes) but easily applied on other series,
the package also provides tools for analysing outputs from R packages 'moveHMM' and 'marcher'.
The segmentation method is a bivariate extension of Lavielle's method available in 'adehabitatLT'
(Lavielle, 1999 <doi:10.1016/S0304-4149(99)00023-X> and 2005 <doi:10.1016/j.sigpro.2005.01.012>).
This method rely on dynamic programming for efficient segmentation.
The segmentation/clustering method alternates steps of dynamic programming with an Expectation-Maximization algorithm.
This is an extension of Picard et al (2007) <doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2006.00729.x> method
(formerly available in 'cghseg' package) to the bivariate case.
The method is fully described in Patin et al (2018) <doi:10.1101/444794>.
