Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) clustering tool
The following R script accompanied with the example data set can be downloaded below.
The R script should be cited as:
Göhring, A. (2020). R script for Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) cluster analysis. https://www.for1670-transalpine.uni-muenchen.de/tools
The citations of the R packages used for the analysis are given in the R script. The R packages have to be cited separately.
The example data set (example_data.csv) includes isotopic data of fish from Haithabu and Schleswig and is part of the publication:
Göhring, A., Mauder, M., Kröger, P. & Grupe, G. (2016). Using Gaussian Mixture Model clustering for multi-isotope analysis of archaeological fish bones for palaeobiodiversity studies. Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, 30, 1349-1360. https://doi.org/10.1002/rcm.7573.
Here you can also find information on the example data set as well as on GMM cluster analysis and how to interpret the resulting clusters.
