control {covglasso}R Documentation

Set control parameters

Description

Set control parameters of the coordinate descent algorithm for the graphical lasso for sparse covariance matrix estimation.

Usage

control(iter.out = 1e04, iter.in = 1e03, tol.out = 1e-04, tol.in = 1e-03)

Arguments

iter.out

Maximum number of iterations in the in the outer loop of the coordinate descent algorithm.

iter.in

Maximum number of iterations in the in the inner loop of the coordinate descent algorithm.

tol.out

Tolerance value for judging when convergence has been reached. Used in the outer loop of the coordinate descent algorithm.

tol.in

Tolerance value for judging when convergence has been reached. Used in the inner loop of the coordinate descent algorithm.

Details

Function control is used to set control parameters of the coordinate descent algorithm employed for solving the covariance graphical lasso.

Value

A list of parameters values.
