The residual plot is a graphical diagnostic that can tell whether a mixture model is necessary. We establish the approximate joint normality of the residual function nonparametrically. We propose an approach to constructing simultaneous asymptotic confidence bands. Our investigation is extended to the empirical log-ratio plot to obtain better visual effect sometimes. The type I error rate is under control to some degree in the proposed procedures with confidence bands based on nonparametric estimation. The proposed procedures are adopted in proteomic and ecological applications. It is found that the probabilities being detected on gels vary over proteins, and that there is no evidence for beetles to be removed with different probabilities.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
