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". When I'm trying Mclust(data,G=3,modelName="V") I have the following message: Error in if (Sumry$G > 1) ans[c(orderedNames, "z")] else ans[orderedNames] : argument is

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

Hello everyone. I have a few MCLUST questions and I was hoping someone could help me out. If you’re an MCLUST user, they will likely be pretty easy to answer. Thanks in advance for any help. Ken What are the pros/cons of starting a finite mixture model at the “m” step versus the “e” step (where “m” is the maximization step and “e” is the expectation step of the EM algorithm)? In

Dear R users it's my first time using R and I am specially interested in doing analyses with the "mixreg" package. I use W2000 but it seems the code for R is available only for Linux Os. Anyway I I downloaded the *tar.gz file of the package for R and the converted it in a *zip file. Apparently the installation process was ok, but when loading it I got the following error: Error in

Dear All I am trying to estimate a mixture of regression and get the following error using the mixreg package: Error in y - yhat : non-conformable arrays The instruction I used were: x <- as.matrix(LRHUN) y <- as.matrix(LRINTER) TS <- list(list(beta=c(3.0,1.0),sigsq=1,lambda=0.4), list(beta=c(0.0,1.0),sigsq=1,lambda=0.6)) prova <- mixreg(x,y, ncomp=2, theta.start=TS)

Hello All... I gave a task to my students that involved using mclust to look for clusters in some bivariate data of isotopes vs various mining locations. They discovered something I didn?t expect; the data (called tur) is appended below. p <- qplot(x = dD, y = dCu65, data = tur, color = mine) print(p) # simple bivariate plot of the data; looks fine mod1 <- Mclust(tur[,2:3]) mod1$G mod2

I keep on receiving the message below after submitting the following line using the mclust package. m2 is a 99 X 1 column vector. * em(modelName = "E", m2, mu = c(25, 50), sigmasq=10, pro = c(0.4, 0.6)) Error in as.double.default(data) : (list) object cannot be coerced to double. Why do I receive this error? Thank, Brian C. Newquist Research Statistician

Hi All, I need to fit a mutlivariate normal model to a dataset in order to obtain the mean and covariance parameters. I see that the MVN function in the MCLUST package can do this, however when I try to run even the simplest example provided in the documentation, as below, I get the following error: n <- 1000 set.seed(0) x <- rnorm(n, mean = -1, sd = 2) mvn(modelName = "X", x)

Hi all, I have to ask this and I know that the reason is that I am a newbie with R programming. So apologize if it is too obvious but I didn't find an answer after googling and reading "An introduction to R". So i have return data from 30 instruments and I am fitting a mixture of normal distributions for the asymmetric marginal distributions and then simulating from those

Dear all, Does anyone know if the mixture analysis (i.e : sexual dimorphism, age group,…) can be done with R software ? Thanks for your help Dan --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear Knowledgeable R Community Members, Please excuse my ignorance, I apologize in advance if this is an easy question, but I am a bit stumped and could use a little guidance. I have a finite mixture modeling problem -- for example, a 2-component gaussian mixture -- where the components have a large overlap, and I am trying to use the "mclust" package to solve this problem. I need

Hi, I woul like to know if it is possible to have a "R code" to generate EM Algorithm for a normal bivariate mixture. Best regard, S.F.

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

Dear list members, I am using Mclust in order to deconvolute a distribution that I believe is a sum of two gaussians. First I can make a model: > my.data.model = Mclust(my.data, modelNames=c("E"), warn=T, G=1:3) But then, when I try to plot the result, I get the following error: > mclust1Dplot(my.data.model, parameters = my.data.model$parameters, what = "density")

Hello all (especially MCLUS users). I'm trying to make use of the MCLUST package by C. Fraley and A. Raftery. My problem is trying to figure out how the (model) identifier (e.g, EII, VII, VVI, etc.) relates to the covariance matrix. The parameterization of the covariance matrix makes use of the method of decomposition in Banfield and Rraftery (1993) and Fraley and Raftery (2002) where

> No HTML this time. Sorry Dear all, I am attempting to model some one-dimensional data using Gaussian mixture model with mclust.? Generally, the data that I have have 3 overlapping populations (with one of them being the majority, and the other two combining to less than 15%) and for some reason, mclust consistently ignores the smaller peaks, giving me strange values for the means

I've been trying to install some R packages such as mclust and flexmix on linux but have had the following error messages. > I've been trying to install mclust on my notebook which has linpus linux lite os and I have installed R as well as some packages all right. However, when I tried to install mclust, it gave me the following messages. Any suggestions? Tim ++++++++++++++++

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.
