TitleTesting the Order of Multivariate Normal Mixture Models
AbstractFinite mixtures of multivariate normal distributions have been widely used in empirical applications in diverse fields such as statistical genetics and statistical finance. Testing the number of components in multivariate normal mixture models is a long-standing challenge even in the most important case of testing homogeneity. This paper develops a likelihood-based test of the null hypothesis of M components against the alternative hypothesis of M+1 components for a general M>=1. We derive the asymptotic distribution of the proposed EM test statistic under the null hypothesis and local alternatives and show the validity of parametric bootstrap. The simulations show that the proposed test has good finite sample size and power properties.
