## FlexMix Interface to Linear Mixed Models with Left-Censoring

### Description

This is a driver which allows fitting of mixtures of linear models with random effects and left-censored observations.

### Usage

    FLXMRlmmc(formula = . ~ ., random, censored, varFix, eps = 10^-6, ...)

### Arguments

`formula` | A formula which is interpreted relative to the formula specified in the call to `flexmix` using `update.formula`. Default is to use the original `flexmix` model formula.
`random` | A formula for specifying the random effects. If missing no random effects are fitted.
`varFix` | If random effects are specified a named logical vector of length 2 indicating if the variance of the random effects and the residuals are fixed over the components. Otherwise a logical indicating if the variance of the residuals are fixed over the components.
`censored` | A formula for specifying the censoring variable.
`eps` | Observations with an a-posteriori probability smaller or equal to `eps` are omitted in the M-step.
`...` | Additional arguments to be passed to `lm.wfit`.

### Value

Returns an object of class `FLXMRlmmc`, `FLXMRlmmcfix`, `FLXMRlmc` or `FLXMRlmcfix`.
