Is a finite mixture of 2 gaussians the name you are looking for? This specific model will not deal with your N component however. you can find some functions here: http://cran.r-project.org/web/views/Cluster.html Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Recently, I have been working with some data that

Recently, I have been working with some data that look like two overlapping gaussian distributions. I would like to either 1) determine the mean and SD for each of the two distributions OR 2) get some (bayesian ?) statistic that estimates how likely an observation is to belong to the left-ha
