On the Choice of Gain Functions in Recursive Estimation of Prior Probabilities

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The choice of a gain function in recursive estimation of prior probabilities using a mixture is discussed. In particular, the rate of convergence of two existing schemes is shown to be related to their respective gain functions. Numerical comparisons are made and an improved scheme is proposed.
