Dear List,

We are using the mix() function in the mixdist package to fit mixture models to 
some of our data.

The package provides a function to compare the fits of nested models using an 
ANOVA function.

However, we were wondering whether there are methods that can be used to 
compare models that differ in the number of distributions fitted and/or the 
shape of the distributions.

Is there a way, using likelihoods maybe, to compare this kinds of fits in a 
statistical meaningfull way?

Regards,
Dieter Vanderelst
