“…Finally, alternative distributions can be used to model the subgroup densities, e.g., the skew-t distribution employed in Murray et al (2017), and the approach of Hasnat et al (2017) can be used to investigate the evolution of subgroups over time. {π * j (z) exp −φ * j (x)H * j 0 (t) − π * j (z)}, it follows that π j (z) = π * j (z), φ j (x) = φ * j (x), H j 0 = H * j 0 , for j = 1, 2.…”
