Description: Designed for estimating variants of hidden (latent) Markov models
15-
(HMMs), mixture HMMs, and non-homogeneous HMMs (NHMMs) for social sequence
16-
data and other categorical time series. Special cases include
17-
feedback-augmented NHMMs, Markov models without latent layer, mixture Markov
18-
models, and latent class models. The package supports
19-
models for one or multiple subjects with one or multiple parallel sequences
20-
(channels). External covariates can be added to explain cluster membership in
21-
mixture models as well as initial, transition and emission probabilities in
22-
NHMMs. The package provides functions for evaluating and
23-
comparing models, as well as functions for visualizing of multichannel
24-
sequence data and HMMs. For NHMMs, methods for computing
25-
average causal effects and marginal state and emission probabilities are
26-
available. Models are estimated using maximum likelihood via the EM
27-
algorithm or direct numerical maximization with analytical gradients.
