Description: A way to fit Parsimonious Finite Mixtures of Multivariate Elliptical Leptokurtic-Normals (MLN) based on the component covariance matrix eigen-decomposition. Two methods of estimation are implemented. The MLN is useful for fitting to data with excess kurtosis. Based on work in Bagnato, L., Punzo, A. and Zoia, M.G. (2017) <doi:10.1002/cjs.11308> and Browne (2023) <doi:10.1016/j.spl.2022.109640>.
