The VBMA4hmm (Variational Bayesian Markov Model for hidden markov model) package This package allows one to deal with a 2-states HMM with a fixed Gaussian distribution as emission for one state and a mixture of Gaussian for the other state. Furthermore, by computing optimal variational weights, it calculates an averaged estimator of the posterior probabilities.
