bayesian analysis of non-normal and non-independent mixed model usingskew-normal/independent distributions
the main assumptions in liner mixed model are normality and independency of random effect component. unfortunately, these two assumptions might be unrealistic in some situations. therefore, in this paper, we will discuss about the analysis of bayesian analysis of non-normal and non-independent mixed model using skew-normal/independent distributions, and finally, thi...
متن کاملMixture of Normal Mean-Variance of Lindley Distributions
‎Abstract: In this paper, a new mixture modelling using the normal mean-variance mixture of Lindley (NMVL) distribution has been considered. The proposed model is heavy-tailed and multimodal and can be used in dealing with asymmetric data in various theoretic and applied problems. We present a feasible computationally analytical EM algorithm for computing the maximum likelihood estimates. T...
متن کاملWhy are Normal Distributions Normal?
We seem to be surrounded by bell curves—curves more formally known as normal distributions, or Gaussian distributions. All manner of things appear to be distributed normally: people’s heights, sizes of snowflakes, errors in measurements, lifetimes of lightbulbs, IQ scores, weights of loaves of bread, and so on. I argue that the standard explanation for why such quantities are normally distribut...
متن کاملGrowth mixture modeling with non-normal distributions.
A limiting feature of previous work on growth mixture modeling is the assumption of normally distributed variables within each latent class. With strongly non-normal outcomes, this means that several latent classes are required to capture the observed variable distributions. Being able to relax the assumption of within-class normality has the advantage that a non-normal observed distribution do...
