Package: DCEM Type: Package Title: Clustering Big Data using Expectation Maximization Star (EM*) Algorithm Version: 2.0.6 Authors@R: c( person("Sharma", "Parichit", email = "parishar@iu.edu", role = c("aut","cre", "ctb")), person("Kurban", "Hasan", role = c("aut","ctb")), person("Dalkilic", "Mehmet", role = "aut")) Maintainer: Sharma Parichit Description: Implements the Improved Expectation Maximisation EM* and the traditional EM algorithm for clustering big data (gaussian mixture models for both multivariate and univariate datasets). This version implements the faster alternative-EM* that expedites convergence via structure based data segregation. The implementation supports both random and K-means++ based initialization.
