Test for homogeneity in gamma mixture models using likelihood ratio
A testing problem of homogeneity in gamma mixture models is studied. It is found that there is a proportion of the penalized likelihood ratio test statistic that degenerates to zero. The limiting distribution of this statistic is found to be the chi-bar-square distributions. The degeneration is due to the negative-definiteness of a complicated random matrix, depending on the shape parameter und...
متن کاملLikelihood Ratio Test for Homogeneity in Normal Mixtures in the Presence of a Structural Parameter
This paper investigates the asymptotic properties of the likelihood ratio statistic for testing homogeneity in normal mixture models in the presence of a structural parameter. The asymptotic null distributions of the ordinary likelihood ratio statistic and the modified likelihood ratio statistic are the same, having the probability density function(pdf) (1/2)g1(x)+(1/2)g2(x) where g1(x) and g2(...
متن کاملA Modified Likelihood Ratio Test for Homogeneity in Finite Mixture Models
Testing for homogeneity in finite mixture models has been investigated by many authors. The asymptotic null distribution of the likelihood ratio test (LRT) is very complex and difficult to use in practice. In this paper we propose a modified LRT for homogeneity in finite mixture models with a general parametric kernel distribution family. The modified LRT has a χ2-type null limiting distributio...
متن کاملModified Likelihood Ratio Test for Homogeneity in a Two-sample Problem
We consider testing for homogeneity in a two-sample problem in which one of the samples has a mixture structure. The problem arises naturally in many applications such as case-control studies with contaminated controls, or the test of a treatment effect in the presence of nonresponders in biological experiments or clinical trials. In this paper, we suggest using the modified likelihood ratio te...
متن کاملModified likelihood ratio test for homogeneity in a mixture of von Mises distributions
Directional data are often collected in applications such as in genetics, geology and astrolomy. One particular statistical problem of interest is whether the data are from a mixture of two von Mises distributions or a single von Mises distribution. Motivating examples including a DNA microarray experiment where it is suggested that a proportion of circadian genes have systematically different ...
