Implementation of quasi-bayesian maximum likelihood estimation for normal mixtures
...ues sigma_n and sigma_b. My priors are already included in the code below. I intend to try a mixture of two normal distributions with same mean, and variances 1 and 5 as starting values. This is what I've done so far: > R <-read.table("C:\\...\\rendite.txt", header=F) > qbmle <- function(p, data){ mu <- mean(data); (-sum(log(p[1]/p[2]*exp(-0.5*(data-mu)^2/p[2]^2)+(1-p[1])/p[3]*exp(-0.5*data^2/p[3]^2)))-2.772*log(p[2]^2)-2.772*log(p[3]^2) - 2.772/p[2]^2 - 13.86/p[3]^2 )} > start <-c(0.9, 1, 5) > out <- nlm(qbmle, start, data=R) The result is...
