A very much revised version (2.0-10) of the mixreg (mixtures of regressions) package has recently been installed on CRAN. The previously existing version (0.0-6) was long overdue for an overhaul.
The new version now provides a formula oriented syntax for the main function (mixreg()). An important addition is the function visualFit() which allows the user to determine starting values by visual/graphical means (in the case of models with a single predictor). A vignette "mystMix" ("The Mysteries of Mixtures of Regressions") has been added to the package. I am confident that this package will now be much more useful than it was previously. Enjoy! :-) cheers, Rolf Turner -- Honorary Research Fellow Department of Statistics University of Auckland Phone: +64-9-373-7599 ext. 88276 ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
