On stochastic comparisons of finite mixture models
Arindam Panja, Pradip Kundu, Biswabrata Pradhan
Abstract
In this paper, we establish some stochastic comparison results for two finite mixture models where the corresponding random variables follow one of the parental families of distributions, namely, proportional odds, proportional hazards, and proportional reversed hazards. The results of this paper are illustrated with numerical examples.
