You can use mclustBIC in package mclust (uses the BIC for deciding
about the
number of components and hierarchical clustering for initialisation).

Hi, All,
I want to fit a normal mixture model. Which package in R is best for this? I
was using the package 'mixdist', but I need to group the data into groups
before fitting model, and different groupings seem to lead to different
results. What other package can I use which is stable? And are there
packages that can automatically determine the number of components?
Thank you,
Cindy
