EM algorithm to fit circular mix of uniform+Von Mises
Hi all, I'm curious if anyone has coded an Expectation-Maximization algorithm that could help me model some circular data I have. I'd like to model it as a mixture of uniform and Von Mises centered on 0, so the only free parameters is the mixing proportion and the kappa of the Von Mises. I couldn't find anything in the contributed packages that seemed to suit this purpose. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated! Cheers, Mike
