NMixMCMC

MCMC estimation of (multivariate) normal mixtures with possibly censored data.

Description

This function runs MCMC for a model in which unknown density is specified as a normal mixture with either known or unknown number of components. With a prespecified number of components, MCMC is implemented through Gibbs sampling (see Diebolt and Robert, 1994) and dimension of the data can be arbitrary. With unknown number of components, currently only univariate case is implemented using the reversible jump MCMC (Richardson and Green, 1997).

Further, the data are allowed to be censored in which case additional Gibbs step is used within the MCMC algorithm

Arguments

`y0`	numeric vector of length n or n x p matrix with observed data. It contains exactly observed, right-censored, left-censored data and lower limits for interval-censored data.
`y1`	numeric vector of length n or n x p matrix with upper limits for interval-censored data. Elements corresponding to exactly observed, right-censored or left-censored data are ignored and can be filled arbitrarily (by `NA`'s) as well. It does not have to be supplied if there are no interval-censored data.
`censor`	numeric vector of length n or n x p matrix with censoring indicators. The following values indicate: 0 right-censored observation, 1 exactly observed value, 2 left-censored observation, 3 interval-censored observation. If it is not supplied then it is assumed that all values are exactly observed.
`x_w`	optional vector providing a categorical covariate that may influence the mixture weights. Internally, it is converted into a `factor`. Added in version 4.0 (03/2015).
`scale`	a list specifying how to scale the data before running MCMC. It should have two components: shift a vector of length 1 or p specifying shift vector m, scale a vector of length 1 or p specifying diagonal of the scaling matrix S. If there is no censoring, and argument `scale` is missing then the data are scaled to have zero mean and unit variances, i.e., `scale(y0)` is used for MCMC. In the case there is censoring and `scale` is missing, `scale$shift` is taken to be a sample mean of `init$y` and `scale$scale` are sample standard deviations of columns of `init$y`. If you do not wish to scale the data before running MCMC, specify `scale=list(shift=0, scale=1)`.
`prior`	a list with the parameters of the prior distribution. It should have the following components (for some of them, the program can assign default values and the user does not have to specify them if he/she wishes to use the defaults): priorK a character string which specifies the type of the prior for K (the number of mixture components). It should have one of the following values: \cr “`fixed`”\cr Number of mixture components is assumed to be fixed to K[max]. This is a default value. \cr “`uniform`”\cr A priori K ~ Unif{1,…,K[max]}. \cr “`tpoisson`”\cr A priori K ~ truncated-Poiss(lambda, K[max]). priormuQ a character string which specifies the type of the prior for mu[1], …, mu[K[max]] (mixture means) and Q[1], …, Q[K[max]] (inverted mixture covariance matrices). It should have one of the following values: \cr “`independentC`”\cr = independent conjugate prior (this is a default value). That is, a priori (mu[j], Q[j]) ~ N(xi[j], D[j]) Wishart(zeta, Xi)* independently for j=1,…,K, where normal means xi[1],…,xi[K], normal variances D[1],…,D[K], and Wishart degrees of freedom zeta are specified further as `xi`, `D`, `zeta` components of the list `prior`. \cr “`naturalC`”\cr = natural conjugate prior. That is, a priori (mu[j], Q[j]) ~ N(xi[j], (c[j]Q[j])^(-1)) Wishart(zeta, Xi)* independently for j=1,…,K, where normal means xi[1],…,xi[K], precisions c[1],…,c[K], and Wishart degrees of freedom zeta are specified further as `xi`, `ce`, `zeta` components of the list `prior`. \cr For both, independent conjugate and natural conjugate prior, the Wishart scale matrix Xi is assumed to be diagonal with gamma[1],…,gamma[p] on a diagonal. For gamma[j]^(-1) (j=1,…,K) additional gamma hyperprior G(g[j], h[j]) is assumed. Values of g[1],…,g[p] and h[1],…,h[p] are further specified as `g` and `h` components of the `prior` list. Kmax maximal number of mixture components K[max]. It must always be specified by the user. lambda parameter lambda for the truncated Poisson prior on K. It must be positive and must always be specified if `priorK` is “`tpoisson`”. delta parameter delta for the Dirichlet prior on the mixture weights w[1],…,w[K]. It must be positive. Its default value is 1. xi a numeric value, vector or matrix which specifies xi[1], …, xi[K[max]] (prior means for the mixture means mu[1], …, mu[K[max]]). Default value is a matrix K[max] x p with midpoints of columns of `init$y` in rows which follows Richardson and Green (1997). \cr If p=1 and `xi`=xi is a single value then xi[1]=…=xi[K[max]] = xi. \cr If p=1 and `xi`=\boldsymbol{ξ} is a vector of length K[max] then the j-th element of `xi` gives xi[j] (j=1,…,K[max]). \cr If p>1 and `xi`=xi is a vector of length p then xi[1]=…=xi[K[max]] = xi. \cr If p>1 and `xi` is a K[max] x p matrix then the j-th row of `xi` gives xi[j] (j=1,…,K[max]). ce a numeric value or vector which specifies prior precision parameters c[1],…,c[K[max]] for the mixture means mu[1], …, mu[K[max]] when `priormuQ` is “`naturalC`”. Its default value is a vector of ones which follows Cappe, Robert and Ryden (2003). \cr If `ce`=c is a single value then c[1]=…=c[K[max]]=c. \cr If `ce`c is a vector of length K[max] then the j-th element of `ce` gives c[j] (j=1,…,K[max]). D a numeric vector or matrix which specifies D[1], …, D[K[max]] (prior variances or covariance matrices of the mixture means mu[1], …, mu[K[max]] when `priormuQ` is “`independentC`”.) Its default value is a diagonal matrix with squared ranges of each column of `init$y` on a diagonal. \cr If p=1 and `D`=d is a single value then d[1]=…=d[K[max]] = d. \cr If p=1 and `D`=d is a vector of length K[max] then the j-th element of `D` gives d[j] (j=1,…,K[max]). \cr If p>1 and `D`=D is a p x p matrix then D[1]=…=D[K[max]] = D. \cr If p>1 and `D` is a (K[max]p) x p* matrix then the the first p rows of `D` give D[1], rows p+1,…,2p of `D` give D[2] etc. zeta degrees of freedom zeta for the Wishart prior on the inverted mixture variances Q[1], …,Q[K[max]].. It must be higher then p-1. Its default value is p + 1. g a value or a vector of length p with the shape parameters g[1],…,g[p] for the Gamma hyperpriors on gamma[1],…,gamma[p]. It must be positive. Its default value is a vector (0.2,…,0.2)'. h a value or a vector of length p with the rate parameters h[1],…,h[p] for the Gamma hyperpriors on gamma[1],…,gamma[p]. It must be positive. Its default value is a vector containing 10/R[l]^2, where R[l] is a range of the l-th column of `init$y`.
`init`	a list with the initial values for the MCMC. All initials can be determined by the program if they are not specified. The list may have the following components: y a numeric vector or matrix with the initial values for the latent censored observations. K a numeric value with the initial value for the number of mixture components. w a numeric vector with the initial values for the mixture weights. mu a numeric vector or matrix with the initial values for the mixture means. Sigma a numeric vector or matrix with the initial values for the mixture variances. Li a numeric vector with the initial values for the Colesky decomposition of the mixture inverse variances. gammaInv a numeric vector with the initial values for the inverted components of the hyperparameter gamma. r a numeric vector with the initial values for the mixture allocations.
`init2`	a list with the initial values for the second chain needed to estimate the penalized expected deviance of Plummer (2008). The list `init2` has the same structure as the list `init`. All initials in `init2` can be determined by the program (differently than the values in `init`) if they are not specified. Ignored when `PED` is `FALSE`.
`RJMCMC`	a list with the parameters needed to run reversible jump MCMC for mixtures with varying number of components. It does not have to be specified if the number of components is fixed. Most of the parameters can be determined by the program if they are not specified. The list may have the following components: Paction probabilities (or proportionalit constants) which are used to choose an action of the sampler within each iteration of MCMC to update the mixture related parameters. Let `Paction` = (p[1], p[2], p[3])'. Then with probability p[1] only steps assuming fixed k (number of mixture components) are performed, with probability p[2] split-combine move is proposed and with probability p[3] birth-death move is proposed. If not specified (default) then in each iteration of MCMC, all sampler actions are performed. Psplit a numeric vector of length `prior$Kmax` giving conditional probabilities of the split move given k as opposite to the combine move. Default value is (1, 0.5, …, 0.5, 0)'. Pbirth a numeric vector of length `prior$Kmax` giving conditional probabilities of the birth move given k as opposite to the death move. Default value is (1, 0.5, …, 0.5, 0)'. par.u1 a two component vector with parameters of the beta distribution used to generate an auxiliary value u[1]. A default value is `par.u1` = (2, 2)', i.e., u[1] ~ Beta(2, 2). par.u2 a two component vector (for p=1) or a matrix (for p > 1) with two columns with parameters of the distributions of the auxiliary values u[2,1],…,u[2,p] in rows. A default value leads to u[2,d] ~ Unif(-1, 1) (d=1,…,p-1), u[2,p] ~ Beta(1, 2p). par.u3 a two component vector (for p=1) or a matrix (for p > 1) with two columns with parameters of the distributions of the auxiliary values u[3,1],…,u[3,p] in rows. A default value leads to u[3,d] ~ Unif(0, 1) (d=1,…,p-1), u[3,p] ~ Beta(1, p).
`nMCMC`	numeric vector of length 4 giving parameters of the MCMC simulation. Its components may be named (ordering is then unimportant) as: burn length of the burn-in (after discarding the thinned values), can be equal to zero as well. keep length of the kept chains (after discarding the thinned values), must be positive. thin thinning interval, must be positive. info interval in which the progress information is printed on the screen. In total (M[burn] + M[keep]) M[thin]* MCMC scans are performed.
`PED`	a logical value which indicates whether the penalized expected deviance (see Plummer, 2008 for more details) is to be computed (which requires two parallel chains). If not specified, `PED` is set to `TRUE` for models with fixed number of components and is set to `FALSE` for models with numbers of components estimated using RJ-MCMC.
`keep.chains`	logical. If `FALSE`, only summary statistics are returned in the resulting object. This might be useful in the model searching step to save some memory.
`onlyInit`	logical. If `TRUE` then the function only determines parameters of the prior distribution, initial values, values of `scale` and parameters for the reversible jump MCMC.
`dens.zero`	a small value used instead of zero when computing deviance related quantities.
`x`	an object of class `NMixMCMC` or `NMixMCMClist` to be printed.
`dic`	logical which indicates whether DIC should be printed. By default, DIC is printed only for models with a fixed number of mixture components.
`ped`	logical which indicates whether PED should be printed. By default, PED is printed only for models with a fixed number of mixture components.
`parallel`	a logical value which indicates whether parallel computation (based on a package `parallel`) should be used when running two chains for the purpose of `PED` calculation
`cltype`	optional argument applicable if `parallel` is `TRUE`. If `cltype` is given, it is passed as the `type` argument into the call to `makeCluster`.
`...`	additional arguments passed to the default `print` method.

Details

See accompanying paper (Komárek, 2009). In the rest of the helpfile, the same notation is used as in the paper, namely, n denotes the number of observations, p is dimension of the data, K is the number of mixture components, w[1],…,w[K] are mixture weights, mu[1],…,mu[K] are mixture means, Sigma_1,…,Sigma_K are mixture variance-covariance matrices, Q_1,…,Q_K are their inverses.

For the data y[1],…,y[n] the following g(y) density is assumed

g(y) = |S|^(-1) * sum[j=1]^K w[j] phi(S^(-1)*(y - m) | mu[j], Sigma[j]),

where phi(. | mu, Sigma) denotes a density of the (multivariate) normal distribution with mean mu and a~variance-covariance matrix Σ. Finally, S is a pre-specified diagonal scale matrix and m is a pre-specified shift vector. Sometimes, by setting m to sample means of components of y and diagonal of S to sample standard deviations of y (considerable) improvement of the MCMC algorithm is achieved.

data.frame with columns labeled y.Mean.*, y.SD.*, y.Corr.*.*, z.Mean.*, z.SD.*, z.Corr.*.* containing the chains for the means, standard deviations and correlations of the distribution of the original (y) and scaled (z) data based on a normal mixture at each iteration.

wpopt: contributions to the weighted penalty from each observation.
inv.D: for each observation, number of iterations (in both chains), where the deviance was in fact equal to infinity (when the corresponding density was lower than dens.zero) and was not taken into account when computing D.expect.
inv.popt: for each observation, number of iterations, where the penalty was in fact equal to infinity and was not taken into account when computing popt.
