mixmodMultinomialModel(listModels = NULL, free.proportions = TRUE, equal.proportions = TRUE, variable.independency = NULL, component.independency = NULL)
listModels |
a list of characters containing a list of models. It is optional. |
free.proportions |
logical to include models with free proportions. Default is TRUE. |
equal.proportions |
logical to include models with equal proportions. Default is FALSE. |
variable.independency |
logical to include models where [\varepsilon_k^j] is independent of the variable j. Optionnal. |
component.independency |
logical to include models where [\varepsilon_k^j] is independent of the component k. Optionnal. |
In the multinomial mixture model, the multinomial distribution is associated to the jth variable of the kth component is reparameterized by a center a_k^j and the dispersion \varepsilon_k^j around this center. Thus, it allows us to give an interpretation similar to the center and the variance matrix used for continuous data in the Gaussian mixture context. In the following, this model will be denoted by [\varepsilon_k^j]. In this context, three other models can be easily deduced. We note [\varepsilon_k] the model where \varepsilon_k^j is independent of the variable j, [\varepsilon^j] the model where \varepsilon_k^j is independent of the component k and, finally, [\varepsilon] the model where \varepsilon_k^j is independent of both the variable $j$ and the component k. In order to maintain some unity in the notation, we will denote also [\varepsilon_k^{jh}] the most general model introduced at the previous section.
