FLXM-class {flexmix} | R Documentation

## Class "FLXM"

### Description

FlexMix model specification.

### Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form `new("FLXM", ...)`, typically inside driver functions like `FLXMRglm` or `FLXMCmvnorm`.

### Slots

`fit`:
  Function returning an `FLXcomponent` object.
`defineComponent`:
  Expression to determine the `FLXcomponent` object given the parameters.
`weighted`:
  Logical indicating whether `fit` can do weighted likelihood maximization.
`name`:
  Character string used in print methods.
`formula`:
  Formula describing the model.
`fullformula`:
  Resulting formula from updating the model formula with the formula specified in the call to `flexmix`.
`x`:
  Model matrix.
`y`:
  Model response.
`terms`, `xlevels`, `contrasts`:
  Additional information for model matrix.
`preproc.x`:
  Function for preprocessing matrix `x` before the EM algorithm starts, by default the identity function.
`preproc.y`:
  Function for preprocessing matrix `y` before the EM algorithm starts, by default the identity function.
