Tao Yu, Pengfei Li, Jing Qin

摘要:

在本文中,我们提出了一个最大平滑似然方法估计的混合模型的成分密度函数,其中的混合比例是已知的,并可能不同的观察。所提出的估计最大化一个平滑的对数似然函数,并继承了所有的重要性质的概率密度函数。一个优化最小化算法,建议计算所提出的估计数值。在理论上,我们表明,从任何初始值开始,该算法增加了平滑的似然函数,并进一步导致估计,最大化平滑的似然函数。这表明了算法的收敛性。此外,我们从理论上建立了我们提出的估计的渐近收敛速度。一个自适应的过程中,建议选择的带宽在我们的估计过程。仿真研究表明,所提出的方法是更有效的比现有的方法的综合平方误差。最后给出了一个实例进行了分析。

英文摘要:

In this paper, we propose a maximum smoothed likelihood method to estimate the component density functions of mixture models, in which the mixing proportions are known and may differ among observations. The proposed estimates maximize a smoothed log likelihood function and inherit all the important properties of probability density functions. A majorization-minimization algorithm is suggested to compute the proposed estimates numerically. In theory, we show that starting from any initial value, this algorithm increases the smoothed likelihood function and further leads to estimates that maximize the smoothed likelihood function. This indicates the convergence of the algorithm. Furthermore, we theoretically establish the asymptotic convergence rate of our proposed estimators. An adaptive procedure is suggested to choose the bandwidths in our estimation procedure. Simulation studies show that the proposed method is more efficient than the existing method in terms of integrated squared errors. A real data example is further analyzed.
