Mixtures of distributions have been used as probability models for clustering data. Classification maximum likelihood (CML) procedure is a popular mixture of maximum likelihood approach to clustering. Yang (1993) extended CML to fuzzy CML (FCML) for a normal mixture model, called FCML-N. However, normal distributions are not robust for outliers. In general, t-distributions should be more robust...

Assume that we have some data D and a model M of the process that generated the data. The model has some parameters θ, the specific value of which we do not know but wish to estimate. If the model is properly constructed, we will be able to calculate the probability of it generating the observed data given a specific set of parameter values, P (D|θ,M). Often, the conditioning on the model is su...

Introduction: Forced expiratory value in one score  (FEV1)/ Forced vital capacity (FVC) was used in classical literature for primary classifications of pulmonary disorders. American Thoracic Society/ European Respiratory Society guidelines recommended using FEV1/VC instead of FEV1/FVC.The aim of study was determination of the extent of superiority of FEV1/VC over the FEV1/FVC. Materials and Met...
