similar to: RFC: no automatic updates of packages with major version change

Is it possible to have a slightly more elaborate description, such as: BackwardCompatibleTo: x.x-x and if the new version is _not_ backward compatible, this would be the current version number?

Hello all, I'm trying to install the local package under window system. Two ways I've tried: 1. using the menu"packages" "install package(s) from local zip files...". My .zip file is "mclust.zip". But it shows Errors which are: "Error in gzfile(file,"r"): unable to open connection In addition: Warning messages: 1.error -1 in

Howdy, I'm experiencing a segmentation fault when trying to load mclust.so from mclust-1.1-4. I'm using R-1.3.1 on RedHat 6.2, and `gcc --version` reports "egcs-2.91.66". Any ideas? -Andy Package install: > install.packages("mclust") [stuff omitted] Installing source package `mclust'

While looking at someone's question on this list led me to the mclust package, and from there to its license. Excerpts: Except for strict academic use, use of MCLUST (by itself or through other packages) requires payment of an annual license fee and completion of a license agreement found at the following URL: http://depts.washington.edu/ventures/UW_Technology/Express_Licenses/mclust.php 1.

Hi All, I am trying to cluster a one-dimensional data (see the file attached) using Mclust() but got an error message like: >Mclust(x) Error in rep(1, n) : Object "n" not found When I do a simulation sometimes it works sometimes doesn't. >Mclust(c(rnorm(50),rnorm(56,-0.5))) Error in rep(1, n) : Object "n" not found >Mclust(c(rnorm(56),rnorm(56,-0.5))) best

Hi All, I have a n x m matrix. The n rows are individuals, the m columns are variables. The matrix is in itself a collection of 1s (if a variable is observed for an individual), and 0s (is there is no observation). Something like: [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [1,] 1 0 1 1 0 0 [2,] 1 0 1 1 0 0 [3,] 1 0 1 1 0 0 [4,] 0 1 0

I did make it compile after a lot of effort, but it crashed R on

Hi, all; I got an unusual error while using mclust library 2.1-7 on R 2.0.1. When I tried to run Mclust(rnorm(100)), I got segmentation fault error. Does anyone know what causes this problem? I came across the same problem even when I tried to run the example shown in Mclust help using iris data.

I wanted to direct packageInfo to a file, so I could add comments, e.g., in MS Word. The following command stored the desired information in an object: mclustInfo <- help(package="mclust") Then "mclustInfo" displays it on my screen. To direct it to a file, I tried the following: sink("mclust.txt") mclustInfo sink()

I'm trying to test a method of identifying individuals (birds) based on measured data (their calls). I have test data from known individual birds, and I am using the Mclust package to see if the program can correctly identify which calls come from different birds. So far, mclust has correctly ID'd the number of birds in the test data set (i.e., the correct # of clusters). However I

Hi, I'm trying to use the library mclust for gaussian mixture on a numeric vector. The function Mclust(data,G=3) is working fine but the fitting is not optimal and is using modelNames="E".

Hi, All; I tried to use library mclust in 64-bit compiled R 2.0.1 but failed. Installation went smoothly without any warning or error. However, when I tried to use them with the following simple code, it crashed.

The default is to use the entire data set. m2 is a

Hi, I got the same problem like http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/devel/04/11/1204.html R crashes when I use the em function from the mclust package on univariate data and on a special case on bivariate data (when the matrix is not provided as written in the manual). It seems as if the problem is the format of the data to be analyzed. Operating System: Windows XP (SP2) R version: R-2.0.1 The
