Dear all: Assume I have 3 distributions, x1, x2, and x3. x1 ~ normal(mu1, sd1) x2 ~ normal(mu2, sd2) x3 ~ normal(mu3, sd3) y1 = x1 + x2 y2 = x1 + x3 Now that the data I can observed is only y1 and y2. It is easy to estimate (mu1+m2), (mu1+mu3), (sd1^2+sd2^2) and (sd1^2+sd3^2) by EM algorithm since y1 ~ normal(mu1+mu2, sqrt(sd1^2+sd2^2)) and y2 ~ normal(mu1+mu3, sqrt(sd1^2+sd3^2)) However, I want

Dear All, have a general question about coefficients estimation of the mixed model. I simulated a very basic model: Y|b=X*\beta+Z*b +\sigma^2* diag(ni); b follows N(0,\psi) #i.e. bivariate normal where b is the latent variable, Z and X are ni*2 design matrices, sigma is the error variance, Y are longitudinal data, i.e. there are ni

Hi, I have the following problem: I am working on assessing the accuracy of diagnostic tests. I have a log likelihood and 3 unknown parameters. Now I want to apply the EM algorithm to find the maximum likelihood estimates of these parameters. But I don't know anaything about how to code that in R. Can somebody help me??

Dear R expert I am a student and I am currently conducting a research project on the Modeling Loss Index Triggers to price Cat Bonds: Application of the risk of hurricanes in USA. I need to solve with R (especially with EM algorithm) this specific problem below. CRAN Package archive doesn't seem to have it also the statistical modeling journal didn't contain a paper that implements this:

Hi, I would like to know if it is possible to have a "R code" to estimate the parameters of a mixture of bivariate (or multivariate) normals via EM Algorithm. I tried to write it, but in the estimation of the matrix of variance and covariance, i have some problems. I generate two bidimensional vectors both from different distribution with their own vector means and variance and

Dear Ingmar & Dave, Thanks a lot for your help and sorry for the late reply. Finally, I've found a way to separate the mixture of distributions (empirically). But the gamlss package looks great, I'm sure it will help me during my further studies.

Hi All, I need some help in how one can implement maximumlikelihood estimation for models with discrete hidden variables in EM in R. Regards [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, i need some help concerning the library norm. i habe to impute some missing values using the em algorithm. The help offered for the library doesn't really help me, maybe somebody already worked on em algorithm or multiple imputation. some fictive Data x1 x2 50 60 24 . 26 20 87 . 21 . Problem: Em Algorithm in R calculating the missings in x2. Thanks in advance. -- View this

Hi, I am trying to understand how the functions em() and me() from the mclust package work. I cannot make sense of what the algorithm returns. Here is a basic, simple example: ######################################### # two bivariate normals, centered at (-5,0) and (5,0), with Id covariance x1 = cbind(rep(-5, 100), rep(0, 100)) + matrix(rnorm(100*2), 100, 2) x2 = cbind(rep(5, 100),

Please help me in writing the R code for this problem. I've been solving this for 4 days. It was hard for me to solve it. It's a simulation problem in R. The problem is My true model is a normal mixture which is given as 0.5 N(-0.8,1) + 0.5 N(0.8,1). This model has two components. I will get a sample size equal to 100 from this model. I will do this 200 times. That means, I will have

Dear all, I need help with EM algorithm. I am modeling this alogirthm based on " Incomplete Data in Generalized Linear Models" by Joseph G Ibrahim. i have half way through developing the R code based on this this paper, I need little help in tweaking my code furthure. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear R-Users, I have a model with a latent variable for a spatio-temporal process. I would like to use EM algorithm to estimate the parameters. Does anybody know how to implement the algorithm in R? Thank you very much in advance, Michela

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.

Hello, I am looking for documentation (PDF ?) about doing clustering with the EM Algorithm on R... I'm sorry for this question which may be trivial... Thanks... Dominique

I created a EM algorithm for Generalized hyperbolic distribution. I want to estimate mutheldaplus, sigmatheldaplus, betasigmaplus in my code. After getting use these value , then my iteration have to be begin of this code. But I can not to do iteration part. Can you help me use my code and get iteration ? Do know any useful code for EM algorithm for Generalized Hyperbolic library(QRMlib)

Hi all, I've been looking in R for an EM algorithm adjusted for multiple-locus haplotypes frequencies, but failed in 100%. Has anyone heard of anything of this kind in R? Thanks in advance, Marcin

Hi all, Is there any EM (Expectation Maximization) package available for R? CRAN Package archive (http://cran.r-project.org/) doesn't seem to have it. Regards, Edward
