Popis: | This paper describes the derivation of the analytical expression for the integrated squared density partial derivative (ISDPD) in a multivariate normal mixture model. The analytical expression of the ISDPD is derived for arbitrary dimensions with partial derivative orders up to four. Although the value of the ISDPD can be obtained by using the common numerical integration via mathematical software (such as Maple, Mathematica, Matlab, etc), it suffers from the limitation of computation time when the dimension or the number of mixture components of the considered multivariate normal mixture model are large. Moreover, numerical comparison indicates the benefits of speed offered by our proposed analytical expression are far superior to the numerical integration performed by Maple. With this analytical expression, the ISDPD can apace be calculated with no assistance of numerical integration. |
