ContaminatedMixt - Parsimonious Mixtures of Contaminated Normal Distributions
Description
This package allows to fit, according to the expectation-conditional maximization algorithm, the 14 parsimonious mixtures of multivariate contaminated normal distributions, with eigen-decomposed scale matrices, introduced by Punzo and McNicholas (2016). Model-based clustering and classification scenarios are implemented. Likelihood-based model selection criteria can be adopted to select the parsimonious model and the number of groups.
