Abstract

Chapter 12 centers around the modified likelihood test for high-order null hypotheses within the finite mixture model. While the fundamental concept of testing for high-order null hypotheses remains akin to the modified likelihood ratio test for homogeneity, the endeavor of deriving the limiting distribution is significantly more intricate. This chapter offers a comprehensive exposition of various technical tools and intricate details involved in this challenging task.
