mixture of 2 normals - starting values
Hi,
I have a problem of estimating a mixture of two normal distributions. I
need to find the starting points automatically, since this is a part of a
larger piece of image processing code.
I found the mix2normal1 function in VGAM package that mentions a method of
finding starting values for mu1 and mu2 but refers the reader to a book by
Everitt and Hand. Unfortunately, I do not have an easy access to this
book. Could anybody point me to a description of the method that I could
use?
Any help will be appre...
