Fit a mixture of Discrete Laplace distributions using plain numerical optimisation. This package has similar applications as the 'disclapmix' package that uses an EM algorithm.
An experimental R-package for estimation of forensic Y-STR haplotype frequencies that generalises the model implemented in the disclapmix package. This extension allows for multi-copy loci, partial repeats and null alleles. For integer valued data, the results should be concordant with the original disclapmix implementation. Unlike the original implementation, this package uses an off-the-shelf solver for numerical likelihood optimisation.
