Asymptotic behavior of mixture failure rates [PDF]
Mixtures of increasing failure rate distributions (IFR) can decrease at least in some intervals of time. Usually this property is observed asymptotically as time tends to infinity , which is due to the fact that a mixture failure rate is ‘bent down’, as ...

Kullback-Leibler approach to Gaussian mixture reduction [PDF]
, 2007 A common problem in multi-target tracking is to approximate a Gaussian mixture by one containing fewer components; similar problems can arise in integrated navigation.

Sample- and segment-size specific Model Selection in Mixture Regression Analysis [PDF]
As mixture regression models increasingly receive attention from both theory and practice, the question of selecting the correct number of segments gains urgency.

mixtools: An R Package for Analyzing Mixture Models [PDF]
The mixtools package for R provides a set of functions for analyzing a variety of finite mixture models. These functions include both traditional methods, such as EM algorithms for univariate and multivariate normal mixtures, and newer methods that ...

The D-optimal design of blocked and split-plot experiments with mixture components. [PDF]
So far, the optimal design of blocked and split-plot experiments involving mixture components has received scant attention. In this paper, an easy method to construct efficient blocked mixture experiments in the presence of fixed and/or random blocks is ...

Understanding the shape of the mixture failure rate (with engineering and demographic applications) [PDF]
Mixtures of distributions are usually effectively used for modeling heterogeneity. It is well known that mixtures of DFR distributions are always DFR. On the other hand, mixtures of IFR distributions can decrease, at least in some intervals of time.
