Jeffreys’ Priors for Mixture Estimation [PDF]
While Jeffreys priors usually are well-defined for the parameters of mixtures of distributions, they are not available in closed form. Furthermore, they often are improper priors. Hence, they have never been used to draw inference on the mixture parameters.

Jeffreys prior is well-known to give invariance of probability of prior distributions under transformation, but this invariance does not mean non-informativeness, is pointed out by Okamoto (2010) (Okamoto2010.pdf in the Files box below). Okamoto (2010) discusses on the case of item response theory (IRT).

THE UNINFORMATIVE PRIOR OF JEFFREYS’ DISTRIBUTION IN BAYESIAN GEOGRAPHICALLY WEIGHTED REGRESSION [PDF]
When using the Bayesian method for estimating parameters in a geographically weighted regression model, the choice of the prior distribution directly impacts the posterior distribution.

Shannon-Optimal Priors on iid Statistical Experiments Converge Weakly to Jeffreys Prior [PDF]
In 1979, J.M. Bernardo argued heuristically that in the case of regular product experiments his information theoretic reference prior is equal to Jeffreys' prior. In this context, B.S. Clarke and A.R. Barron showed in 1994, that in the same class of experiments Jeffreys' prior is asymptotically optimal in the sense of Shannon, or, in Bayesian terms ...

Coconut Plant Growth, Mahalanobis Distance, and Jeffreys’ Prior
We study coconut plant growth in saline soil of Sunderban, West Bengal. Two growth environments are compared by Mahalanobis distance. Jeffreys’ noninformative prior and related matching priors are investigated in relation to cases including bi-exponential distribution for first principal component in the analyzed data. Fisher’s information I(\(\theta \)

Fisher–Rao geometry and Jeffreys prior for Pareto distribution [PDF]
In this paper, we investigate the Fisher-Rao geometry of the two-parameter family of Pareto distribution. We prove that its geometrical structure is isometric to the Poincaré upper half-plane model, and then study the corresponding geometrical features by presenting explicit expressions for connection, curvature and geodesics.
