Bayesian Mixture of Latent Class Analysis Models with the Telescoping Sampler6 months ago
Introduction | Data | Model specification | Specification of the MCMC simulation and prior parameters | MCMC sampling | Convergence diagnostics of the run | Identification of the mixture model | Step 1: Estimate $K_+$ and $K$ | Step 2: Extracting the draws with exactly $\hat{K}_+$ non-empty components | Step 3: Clustering and relabeling of the MCMC draws | Step 4: Estimating data cluster specific parameters and determining the final partition | Step 4: Visualizing the posterior component occurrence and precision distributions mu_k and phi_j. | References
