Integrated Completed Likelihood: the BIC minus the entropy of the variational distribution of the latent variables (higher is better): $$\mathrm{ICL} = \mathrm{BIC} - \mathcal{H}(W) - \mathcal{H}(U).$$
\(\mathcal{H}(W)\): entropy of the Gaussian variational distribution of \(W\), \(\frac{1}{2}\sum_{i,k} \log \sigma^2_{ik} + \frac{nq}{2}\{1 + \log(2\pi)\}\), where \(\sigma^2 = S\) for the ZIP-PLN-PCA model (
Sis a variance) and \(\sigma^2 = S^2\) for the PLN-PCA model (Sis a standard deviation). Zero whenq = 0.\(\mathcal{H}(U)\): entropy of the Bernoulli variational distribution of \(U\), \(-\sum_{ij} \{\xi_{ij}\log\xi_{ij} + (1-\xi_{ij})\log(1-\xi_{ij})\}\) (ZIP-PLN-PCA model only).
Usage
ICL(Y, X, fit, q, model = c("ZIPLNPCA", "PLNPCA"))
