Minimax Optimality of the NPMLE for Gaussian Mixtures in Hellinger Distance
Publisher summary· verbatim
arXiv:2610.30109v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We analyze the problem of estimating univariate Gaussian mixture densities using the nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator (NPMLE) based on $n$ independent and identically distributed samples. We show that the unconstrained NPMLE achieves the mi
