Calculating AWE from mclust package

Is it possible to calculate the Approximate Weight of Evidence (AWE) from information obtained via the mclust R package?

Solution

  • According to R documentation, you should have access to function awe(tree, data) since version R1.1.7.

    From the example on the linked page (in case of broken link),

    data(iris)
iris.m _ iris[,1:4]
awe.val <- awe(mhtree(iris.m), iris.m)
plot(awe.val)
