Mixture distribution(e.g. GMM) and wavelet transform
Can we represent the arbitrary function by mixture distribution?
I thought this problem by using the analogy of wavelet transform.
Definition.
Let be a probability density function in .
for distribution function
indicates .
In the following, we omitte the arguments of function in the same way.
We confirm is probability density function easily.
Proposition
Let be probability density function.
and class function such that
<
We can expand any probability density function ,
(1)
We represent the expansion coefficients as below.
(2)
We ommitte the integral range in the case the integral range is .
Where, is Fourier transform of .
We have Gaussian mixture model if is normal distribution p.d.f.
Proof.
We can prove in the same way as continuous wavelet transform.([1]Theorem4.4)
The right integral
in (1) can be rewritten as the sum of convolution.
indicates convolution, the "." indicates the variable over which the convolution is caliculated.
We define .
In the same way, we have
