Breakdown Points for Maximum Likelihood Estimators of Location–scale Mixtures
ML-estimation based on mixtures of Normal distributions is a widely used tool for cluster analysis. However, a single outlier can make the parameter estimation of at least one of the mixture components break down. Among others, the estimation of mixtures of t-distributions by McLachlan and Peel [Finite Mixture Models (2000) Wiley, New York] and the addition of a further mixture component accoun...
متن کاملMaxbias Curves of Robust Location Estimators based on Subranges
A maxbias curve is a powerful tool to describe the robustness of an estimator. It tells us how much an estimator can change due to a given fraction of contamination. In this paper, maxbias curves are computed for some univariate location estimators based on subranges: midranges, trimmed means and the univariate Minimum Volume Ellipsoid (MVE) location estimators. These estimators are intuitively...
متن کاملTsallis Maximum Entropy Lorenz Curves
In this paper, at first we derive a family of maximum Tsallis entropy distributions under optional side conditions on the mean income and the Gini index. Furthermore, corresponding with these distributions a family of Lorenz curves compatible with the optional side conditions is generated. Meanwhile, we show that our results reduce to Shannon entropy as $beta$ tends to one. Finally, by using ac...
متن کاملLocation Estimators for Interferometric Fringes
Future global astrometry missions have targeted the determination of positions, parallaxes, and annual proper motions to the 10 mas level. This can be achieved through the use of fringe imaging interferometers, possibly featuring wide fields of view (e.g., Fizeau configurations). The basic location information is to be extracted from the fringe pattern by proper implementation of the detection ...
متن کاملGeneralized Maximum Spacing Estimators
The maximum spacing (MSP) method, introduced by Cheng and Amin (1983) and independently by Ranneby (1984), is a general method for estimating param eters in univariate continuous distributions and is known to give consistent and asymptotically efficient estimates under general conditions. This method can be derived from an approximation based on simple spacings of the Kullback-Leibler informat...
