Calling R function within Matlab and loading Matlab variables into the R function

Vote count:

I am calling R script from within Matlab. The R script is a function that should load the data generated from Matlab and then passes it through the R function, and finally computes a result and sends it back to Matlab. I have included a very simplified code below. The Matlab and R file are in the same path. The R_script.R is the following:

require("mclust")
group = function(data, num_cls){
    Mclustmodel = Mclust(data, num_cls)
    return(Mclustmodel$class)
}

In Matlab, the code is:

system( 'Rscript ./R_script.R' )
X = rand(10);
K = 3;
class = group(X, K) % Question: Can I load X and K into the R function group, and directly calculate the answer?

I am using a Linux system.

Thanks.
