We consider grouped and ungrouped data and emphasize SMHD methods. The approaches extend the methods based on the deterministic version of Hellinger distance for count data. The methods are general, it only requires that random samples from the discrete parametric family can be drawn and can be used as alternative methods to estimation using probability generating function (pgf) or methods based matching moments. Whereas this paper focuses on count data, goodness of fit tests based on simulated Hellinger distance can also be applied for testing goodness of fit for continuous distributions when continuous observations are grouped into intervals like in the case of the traditional Pearson’s statistics. Asymptotic properties of the SMHD methods are studied and the methods appear to preserve the properties of having good efficiency and robustness of the deterministic version.展开更多

For the variable selection problem, the penalized likelihood approach with a new combined penalty function which balances the SCAD and l<sub>2</sub> penalty is proposed. The adjusted EM algorithm is presented to get parameter estimates of RMR-SSMN models at a faster convergence rate. As simulations show, our mixture models are more robust than general FMR models and the new combined penalty function outperforms SCAD for variable selection. Finally, the proposed methodology and algorithm are applied to a real data set and achieve reasonable results.展开更多
