Reject inference in credit scoring is a statistical approach to adjust for nonrandom sample bias due to rejected applicants. Function estimation approaches are based on the assumption that rejected applicants are not necessary to be included in the estimation, when the missing data mechanism is missing at random. On the other hand, the density estimation approach by using mixture models indicates that reject inference should include rejected applicants in the model. When mixture models are chosen for reject inference, it is often assumed that data follow a normal distribution. If data include missing values, an application of the normal mixture model to fully observed cases may cause another sample bias due to missing values. We extend reject inference by a multivariate normal mixture model to handle incomplete characteristic variables. A simulation study shows that inclusion of incomplete characteristic variables outperforms the function estimation approaches.

By Stochastic simulations we discuss the fitness of a mix-ture normal distribution to observations from general mixture distribu-tions using the MLE method and the EM algorithm. We calulate the probability of misclassifying objects and estimate the optimal number of mixture components with mutual information measure.

In this paper, the normal mixture model subjected to general linear restriction for component-means based on linear regression is proposed, and its fitting method by EM algorithm and Lagrange multiplier is provided. This model is applied to gene clustering of microarray expression data, which demonstrates it has very good performances for real data set. This model also allows to obtain the clusters that an analyst wants to find out in the fashion that the hypothesis for component-means is represented by the design matrices and the linear restriction matrices.

A normal mixture model with which dependence between classes is incorporated is proposed in order to detect differentially expressed genes. Gene clustering approaches suffer from the high dimensional column of microarray expression data matrix which leads to the over-fit problem. Various methods are proposed to solve the problem. In this paper, use of simple averaging data within each class is proposed to overcome the various problems due to high dimensionality when the normal mixture model is fitted. Some experiments through simulated data set and real data set show its availability in actuality.

It is well known that the maximum likelihood estimator(MLE) in normal mixture models with unequal variances does not fall in the interior of the parameter space. Recently, a doubly smoothed maximum likelihood estimator(DS-MLE) (Seo and Lindsay, 2010) was proposed as a general alternative to the ordinary maximum likelihood estimator. Although this method gives a natural modification to the ordinary MLE, its computation is cumbersome due to intractable integrations. In this paper, we derive an EM algorithm for the DS-MLE under normal mixture models and propose a fast computational tool using a local quadratic approximation. The accuracy and speed of the proposed method is then presented via some numerical studies.

The preparation methods are to be used as "melting method" and "absorption method", respectively. The reaction mixture in the reaction container was heating up the reaction mixture to $200^{\circ}C$ for 2 hour. The mixing time of lab scale preparation should be provided quit long, instead of the short working time in a compounder vessel. And The PP-PCM mixture in the reaction container was heating up the mixture around $60-80^{\circ}C$ for 2 hour. A melting method of frozen gel with 50/50 weight ratio of polypropylene-normal octadecane was prepared by adding PP chip and normal octadecane. An absorption method of frozen gel with 70/30 weight ratio of PP 4.8-normal n-octadecane was prepared by adding PP powder and normal octadecnae.

원형자료에 대한 모형화 분석은 주로 von Mises 분포를 비롯한 대칭형의 경우를 중심으로 많은 연구가 이루어져 왔다. 최근 선형자료의 분석에서 다양한 비대칭의 자료에 적합한 왜정규분포의 활용에 대한 연구가 활발히 수행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 Pewsey (2000a)에 의해 처음 소개된 겹친왜정규분포를 이용한 비대칭의 원형자료에 대한 적합을 다루었다. 특히 비대칭 다봉형 원형자료의 적합을 위해 겹친왜정규혼합분포를 제안하고, EM 알고리즘을 통한 모수추정 과정을 제시하였다. 모의실험을 통해 EM 알고리즘을 통한 모수추정의 정확성을 확인하고, 실제 지방국도의 일일교통량 자료의 모형화 분석에 적용하였다.

The use of single component distribution to describe the irregular stand structure of degraded forest often lead to bias. Such biasness can be overcome by the application of finite mixture distribution. Therefore, in this study, finite mixture distribution was used to characterise the irregular stand structure of the Gmelina arborea plantation in Omo forest reserve. Thirty plots, ten each from the three stands established in 1984, 1990 and 2005 were used. The data were pooled per stand and fitted. Four finite mixture distributions including normal mixture, lognormal mixture, gamma mixture and Weibull mixture were considered. The method of maximum likelihood was used to fit the finite mixture distributions to the data. Model assessment was based on negative loglikelihood value ($-{\Lambda}{\Lambda}$), Akaike information criterion (AIC), Bayesian information criterion (BIC) and root mean square error (RMSE). The results showed that the mixture distributions provide accurate and precise characterisation of the irregular diameter distribution of the degraded Gmelina arborea stands. The $-{\Lambda}{\Lambda}$, AIC, BIC and RMSE values ranged from -715.233 to -348.375, 703.926 to 1433.588, 718.598 to 1451.334 and 3.003 to 7.492, respectively. Their performances were relatively the same. This approach can be used to describe other irregular forest stand structures, especially the multi-species forest.

Law 등 (2004)은 군집분석에서 변수선택을 위해 정규분포기반 "두각 혼합모형(salient mixture model)"의 사용을 제안하였다. 본 논문에서는 이 모형의 적합 상의 문제점과 변수선택의 결함을 지적하고 그 대안을 제시한다. 모의자료와 실자료를 바탕으로 제안된 방법이 기존의 방법보다 유용함을 보였다.
