Class MultivariateGaussianModelFactory<V extends NumberVector>

java.lang.Object

de.lmu.ifi.dbs.elki.algorithm.clustering.em.AbstractEMModelFactory<V,EMModel>

de.lmu.ifi.dbs.elki.algorithm.clustering.em.MultivariateGaussianModelFactory<V>

Type Parameters:

V - vector type

All Implemented Interfaces:

EMClusterModelFactory<V,EMModel>

public class MultivariateGaussianModelFactory<V extends NumberVector>
extends AbstractEMModelFactory<V,EMModel>

Factory for EM with multivariate Gaussian models (with covariance; also known as Gaussian Mixture Modeling, GMM). These models have individual covariance matrixes, so this corresponds to the 'VVV' model in Mclust (R).

Since:

0.7.0
