Finite Mixture Models and Model-Based Clustering
Finite mixture models have a long history in statistics, having been used to model pupulation heterogeneity, generalize distributional assumptions, and lately, for providing a convenient yet formal framework for clustering and classification. This paper provides a detailed review into mixture models and model-based clustering. Recent trends in the area, as well as open problems are also discussed.
متن کاملInterval estimation in a finite mixture model: Modeling P
The performance of interval estimates in a uniform-beta mixture model is evaluated using three computational strategies. Such a model has found use when modeling a distribution of P -values from multiple testing applications. The number of P -values and the closeness of a parameter to the boundary of its space both play a role in the precision of parameter estimates as does the “nearness” of th...
متن کاملMML-Based Approach for Finite Dirichlet Mixture Estimation and Selection
This paper proposes an unsupervised algorithm for learning a finite Dirichlet mixture model. An important part of the unsupervised learning problem is determining the number of clusters which best describe the data. We consider here the application of the Minimum Message length (MML) principle to determine the number of clusters. The Model is compared with results obtained by other selection cr...
متن کاملNonparametric Estimation of Finite-mixture Models
The aim of this paper is to provide simple nonparametric methods to estimate finite-mixture models from data with repeated measurements. Three measurements suffice for the mixtures to be fully identified and so our approach can be used even with very short panel data. We provide distribution theory for estimators of the number of mixture components, the mixing proportions, as well as of the mix...
متن کاملEstimation of single-index quantile regression Model
Abstract The conditional quantile function m(X) of response variable Y given the value of covariate X is modeled through a single-index model, i.e. m(X) = m(θ 0 X) for some unknown parameter vector θ0. An iterated algorithm is proposed to estimate θ0. To establish the root-n consistency of the estimator, we prove a convexity lemma for almost sure convergence, parallel to the results by Pollard ...
