Estimation/multiple imputation programs for mixed categorical
    and continuous data.

Contains a mixture of statistical methods including the MCMC methods to analyze normal mixtures. Additionally, model based clustering methods are implemented to perform classification based on (multivariate) longitudinal (or otherwise correlated) data. The basis for such clustering is a mixture of multivariate generalized linear mixed models. The package is primarily related to the publications Komárek (2009, Comp. Stat. and Data Anal.) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2009.05.006> and Komárek and Komárková (2014, J. of Stat. Soft.) <doi:10.18637/jss.v059.i12>. It also implements methods published in Komárek and Komárková (2013, Ann. of Appl. Stat.) <doi:10.1214/12-AOAS580>, Hughes, Komárek, Bonnett, Czanner, García-Fiñana (2017, Stat. in Med.) <doi:10.1002/sim.7397>, Jaspers, Komárek, Aerts (2018, Biom. J.) <doi:10.1002/bimj.201600253> and Hughes, Komárek, Czanner, García-Fiñana (2018, Stat. Meth. in Med. Res) <doi:10.1177/0962280216674496>.

Algorithms and methods for model-based clustering and classification.
 It supports various types of data: continuous, categorical and counting
 and can handle mixed data of these types. It can fit Gaussian (with diagonal
 covariance structure), gamma, categorical and Poisson models. The algorithms
 also support missing values.

Model time series using mixture autoregressive (MAR)
             models.  Implemented are frequentist (EM) and Bayesian
             methods for estimation, prediction and model
             evaluation. See Wong and Li (2002)
             <doi:10.1111/1467-9868.00222>, Boshnakov (2009)
             <doi:10.1016/j.spl.2009.04.009>), and the extensive
             references in the documentation.

Developed for the following tasks. 1- simulating realizations from the canonical, 
              restricted, and unrestricted finite mixture models. 2- Monte Carlo approximation for
              density function of the finite mixture models. 3- Monte Carlo approximation for the 
              observed Fisher information matrix, asymptotic standard error, and the corresponding  
              confidence intervals for parameters of the mixture models sing the method proposed by
              Basford et al. (1997) <https://espace.library.uq.edu.au/view/UQ:57525>.
