Hi,

I have a problem of estimating a mixture of two normal distributions.  I
need to find the starting points automatically, since this is a part of a
larger piece of image processing code.

I found the mix2normal1 function in VGAM package that mentions a method of
finding starting values for mu1 and mu2 but refers the reader to a book by
Everitt and Hand.  Unfortunately, I do not have an easy access to this
book.  Could anybody point me to a description of the method that I could
use?

Any help will be appreciated.  Thanks in advance,

Andy
