Abstract |
|
In mixture distributions, mixing parameter is an important parameter. In this paper we estimate this parameter in mixture
of two chi-square distributions using method of moments, EM-algorithm and Bayesian approach. These estimators are compared
empirically; and their bias is investigated using numerical techniques. At the end, we conjecture that EM-algorithm is better than method
of moments, but bayesian approach is better than method of moments and EM-algorithm. Analysis of a real data set is considered for
illustrative purposes. |
