Parsimonious models are simple models with great explanatory predictive powers. They usually explain data with a minimum number of parameters, or predictor variables. MoEClust is the required R package that fits finite Gaussian Mixtures of Experts models using a range of parsimonious covariance with the help of EM/CEM algorithms.
The following steps need to be carried out to perform parsimonious data analysis:
- Install the following package, which is needed to create a parsimonious model of our Glass Identification dataset as follows:
