Flexible estimation of a semiparametric two-component mixture model with one parametric component
We study a two-component semiparametric mixture model where one component distribution belongs to a parametric class, while the other is symmetric but otherwise arbitrary. This semiparametric model has wide applications in many areas such as large-scale simultaneous testing/multiple testing, sequential clustering, and robust modeling. We develop a class of estimators that are surprisingly simpl...
متن کاملSkew Laplace Finite Mixture Modelling
‎This paper presents a new mixture model via considering the univariate skew Laplace distribution‎. ‎The new model can handle both heavy tails and skewness and is multimodal‎. ‎Describing some properties of the proposed model‎, ‎we present a feasible EM algorithm for iteratively‎ ‎computing maximum likelihood estimates‎. ‎We also derive the observ...
متن کاملBayesian speaker recognition using Gaussian mixture model and laplace approximation
This paper presents a Bayesian approach for Gaussian mixture model (GMM)-based speaker identification. Some approaches evaluate the speaker score of a test speech utterance using a single data likelihood over the GMM learned by point estimation methods according to the maximum likelihood or maximum a posteriori criteria. In contrast, the Bayesian approach evaluates the score by using the expect...
متن کاملA two-component Bayesian mixture model to identify implausible gestational age
Background: Birth weight and gestational age are two important variables in obstetric research. The primary measure of gestational age is based on a mother’s recall of her last menstrual period. This recall may cause random or systematic errors. Therefore, the objective of this study is to utilize Bayesian mixture model in order to identify implausible gestational age. Methods: ...
متن کاملRobust mixture regression model fitting by Laplace distribution
A robust estimation procedure for mixture linear regression models is proposed by assuming that the error terms follow a Laplace distribution. The estimation procedure is implemented by an EM algorithm based on the fact that the Laplace distribution is a scale mixture of a normal distribution. Finite sample performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated by numerical simulation studies. The ...
