Some Problems with Data From Finite Mixture Distributions
D. Michael Titterington · 1982
Finite mixture distributions arise in many statistical applications. After the basic definition of mixture distributions, many of these applications are listed, sampling models are proposed and the basic statistical problems are described. More detailed study is then made of the use of the familiar statistical methodologies in mixture decomposition, of the incorporation of mixture data into discrimination procedures and of the problems that arise in hypothesis testing.
