Iterative numerical methods are necessary t o find the maximum likelihood estimates for finite mixture distributions. This paper shows that it will often be possible to analytitally reduce the number of equations that must ultimately be solved numerically. Such a reduction in dimensionality has not
This paper deals with a new "nite di!erence method for modal parameter estimation. This method uses formulas which involve di!erences between the frequency response data at three frequencies in the vicinity of a natural frequency to estimate this natural frequency together with the damping and the r
In this paper, we propose parameter estimation techniques for mixture density polynomial segment models (MDPSMs) where their trajectories are specified with an arbitrary regression order. MDPSM parameters can be trained in one of three different ways: (1) segment clustering; (2) expectation maximiza
## Abstract In many processes one has to describe events in which given particles or elements divide themselves so that these elements are to observe only after the division. In biological problems one meets such a situation i.e. in the cultivation of bacteria. In this paper we investigate a mathe
