This book uses the EM (expectation maximization) algorithm tosimultaneously estimate the missing data and unknown parameter(s)associated with a data set. The parameters describe the componentdistributions of the mixture; the distributions may be continuousor discrete.
The editors provide a complete account of the applications,mathematical structure and statistical analysis of finite mixturedistributions along with MCMC computational methods, together witha range of detailed discussions covering the applications of themethods and features chapters from the leading experts on thesubject. The applications are drawn from scientific discipline,including biostatistics, computer science, ecology and finance.This area of statistics is important to a range of disciplines, andits methodology attracts interest from researchers in the fields inwhich it can be applied.
