glasso.miss

R Documentation

Sparse Covariance Selection by glasso with EM

Description

A function to achieve covariance selection by glasso with EM, missing data is allowed

Usage

glasso.miss(Y, emIter, rho, ...)

Arguments

`Y`	numeric matrix. Columns are for variables and rows are for samples.
`emIter`	numeric value. The maximum number of iteration for EM
`rho`	The l1 norm tuning parameter.
`...`	additional control parameter passed to glasso

Value

a list of following comopnents.

`Y.imputed`	The sample matrix Y with missing data imputed by EM
`bic`	the BIC(Bayesian Information Criterion) of current fit.
`...`	other values returned by glasso
