Convergence Test for EM-Algorithm

Usage

em_converged(loglik, previous_loglik, tol = 1e-04, check.increased = FALSE)

Arguments

loglik

numeric. Current value of the log-likelihood function.

previous_loglik

numeric. Value of the log-likelihood function at the previous iteration.

tol

numerical. The tolerance of the test. If |LL(t) - LL(t-1)| / avg < tol, where avg = (|LL(t)| + |LL(t-1)|)/2, then algorithm has converged.

check.increased

logical. Check if likelihood has increased.

Value

A logical statement indicating whether EM algorithm has converged. if check.increased = TRUE, a vector with 2 elements indicating the convergence status and whether the likelihood has decreased.
