Random Generator of a Normal Mixture

Description

Generates random samples of a univariate Normal Mixture.

Usage

 rnorm_mix(n, pi, mean, sd, plot.it = TRUE, empirical = FALSE, col.pop = "red3",
           col.empirical = "navy", ...)

Arguments

n

number of observations.

pi

vector of mixture weights.

mean

vector of mixture means.

sd

vector of mixture standard deviations.

plot.it

logical; if TRUE (default), plot the histogram with estimated distribution curve.

empirical

logical; if TRUE, add the empirical curve ("Kernel Density Estimation") in the plot.

col.pop

a colour to be used in the curve of population density.

col.empirical

a colour to be used in the curve of empirical density.

...

further arguments and graphical parameters passed to hist.

Examples

## Generate a sample.
data = rnorm_mix(n = 1000, pi = c(0.6, 0.4), mean = c(10, 18), sd = c(1, 2))

## Sample vector.
data$sample
## The classification of each observation.
data$classification
## The histogram of the sample with population density curve.
data$plot

## Not plotting the graphic.
rnorm_mix(n = 1000, pi = c(0.6, 0.4), mean = c(10, 18), sd = c(1, 2), plot.it = FALSE)

## Adding the empirical curve to the graphic.
rnorm_mix(n = 1000, pi = c(0.6, 0.4), mean = c(10, 18), sd = c(1, 2), plot.it = TRUE,
          empirical = TRUE)

## Changing the color of the curves.
rnorm_mix(n = 1000, pi = c(0.6, 0.4), mean = c(10, 18), sd = c(1, 2), plot.it = TRUE,
          empirical = TRUE, col.pop = "blue", col.empirical = "green")

## Using "...".
rnorm_mix(n = 1000, pi = c(0.6, 0.4), mean = c(10, 18), sd = c(1, 2), breaks = 300)
