Integrated Completed Likelihood Criterion


Description

Compute the Integrated Completed Likelihood criterion for model selection.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'flexmix'
ICL(object, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'stepFlexmix'
ICL(object, ...)

Arguments

object

see Methods section below

...

Some methods for this generic function may take additional, optional arguments. At present none do.

Value

Returns a numeric vector with the corresponding ICL value(s).

Methods

object = "flexmix":
