icfitControl {interval}R Documentation

Auxiliary for controling icfit

Description

A function to create a list of arguments for icfit.

Usage

icfitControl(epsilon = 1e-06, maxit = 10000) 

Arguments

epsilon The minimum error for convergence purposes. The EM algorithm stops when error < epsilon, where error is the maximum of the reduced gradients (see Gentleman and Geyer, 1994)
maxit maximum number of iterations of the EM algorithm

Value

An list with the arguments as components.
