We propose a latent Gaussian mixture model to classify ordinal data. The observed data are considered as a discretization of an underlying latent mixture. A pairwise likelihood approach is used to evaluate a multidimensional integral that cannot be written in a closed form. The model is estimated within the expectationmaximization framework.

Abstract
We propose a latent Gaussian mixture model to classify ordinal data. The observed data are considered as a discretization of an underlying latent mixture. A pairwise likelihood approach is used to evaluate a multidimensional integral that cannot be written in a closed form. The model is estimated within the expectationmaximization framework.File allegati a questo prodotto
