NPflow
is a package for performing Bayesian estimation of Dirichlet process mixtures of multivariate skew t-distributions. It is especially oriented towards flow-cytometry data preprocessing applications, but can be useful for numerous other applications.
The main function of the package is DPMpost()
.
The method implemented in this package is detailed in the following article:

The easiest way to get NPflow
is to install it from CRAN:
install.packages("NPflow")
Or to get the development version from GitHub:
#install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("borishejblum/NPflow", ref="CRANrelease")
