BIC is the default criterion to assess the number of classes in the Q mixture model. AIC, AICc or Likelihood ratio test (LRT) are also available to assess the number of classes.

Here, `-lrt 0` means turning off the LRT, then `-merit BIC` means using BIC to assess the number of classes. (Note that: `-merit` also decides the creterion for selecting subtitution model type in each classes. If using LRT for assessing the number of classes, the default creterion for selecting subtitution model type is BIC.)
