Mixture Criterion Value
data class MixtureCriterionValue(val value: Double, val isComparable: Boolean, val numZeroDensity: Int, val message: String? = null)(source)
The value of a criterion for one candidate, together with whether that value may be compared with another candidate's.
A criterion computed from a log-likelihood that is not finite, or from a candidate that assigns zero density to some observation, is not on the same footing as one computed normally. Reporting that alongside the number, rather than substituting a bounded worst value and moving on, is what keeps a ranking honest.
Parameters
value
the criterion value
is Comparable
whether the value may be ranked against other candidates
num Zero Density
the number of observations at which the candidate's density is zero
message
an explanation when the value is not comparable, otherwise null
