摘要
This paper considers the class of normal latent factor mixture models. It presents a method for estimating the posterior distribution of the parameters, derives analytical expressions for both the first and second derivatives of the posterior kernel (the score and Hessian), and provides posterior approximations that can be computed relatively quickly.
