A semiparametric finite mixture of regression models is defined, with concomitant information assumed to influence both the component weights and the conditional means. The contribution of a concomitant variable is flexibly specified as a smooth function represented by cubic splines. A Bayesian estimation procedure is proposed and an empirical analysis of the baseball salaries dataset is illustrated.

Abstract
A semiparametric finite mixture of regression models is defined, with concomitant information assumed to influence both the component weights and the conditional means. The contribution of a concomitant variable is flexibly specified as a smooth function represented by cubic splines. A Bayesian estimation procedure is proposed and an empirical analysis of the baseball salaries dataset is illustrated.File in questo prodotto:
