MEteorits: Mixtures-of-ExperTs modEling for cOmplex and non-noRmal dIsTributions

Travis build status CRAN versions CRAN logs

MEteorits is an open source toolbox (available in R and Matlab) containing several original and flexible mixtures-of-experts models to model, cluster and classify heteregenous data in many complex situations where the data are distributed according to non-normal and possibly skewed distributions, and when they might be corrupted by atypical observations. The toolbox also contains sparse mixture-of-experts models for high-dimensional data.

Our (dis-)covered meteorits are for instance the following ones:

  • NMoE (Normal Mixtures-of-Experts);
  • tMoE (t Mixtures-of-Experts);
  • SNMoE (Skew-Normal Mixtures-of-Experts);
  • StMoE (Skew t Mixtures-of-Experts).

The models and algorithms are developped and written in Matlab by Faicel Chamroukhi, and translated and designed into R packages by Florian Lecocq, Marius Bartcus and Faicel Chamroukhi.

Installation

You can install the development version of MEteorits from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("fchamroukhi/MEteorits")

To build vignettes for examples of usage, type the command below instead:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("fchamroukhi/MEteorits", 
                         build_opts = c("--no-resave-data", "--no-manual"), 
                         build_vignettes = TRUE)

Use the following command to display vignettes:
