A simulation study of a parametric mixture model of three different distributions to analyze heterogeneous survival data

In this paper a simulation study of a parametric mixture model of three different distributions is considered to model heterogeneous survival data.Some properties of the proposed parametric mixture of Exponential, Gamma and Weibull are investigated.The Expectation Maximization Algorithm (EM) is impl...
