Simulation of random values from a mixture of von Mises-Fisher distributions
Description
The function simulates random values simulation from a given mixture of von Mises-Fisher distributions.
Usage
rmixvmf(n, probs, mu, k)
Arguments
n |
The sample size. |
probs |
This is avector with the mixing probability of each group. |
mu |
A matrix with the mean direction of each group. |
k |
A vector with the concentration parameter of each group. |
Details
The function simulates random values simulation from a given mixture of von Mises-Fisher distributions using the rvmf function.
Value
A list including:
id |
An indicator of the group of each simulated vector. |
x |
A matrix with the simulated data. |
