dmixedvm

Mixture of von Mises Distributions

Evaluates the density function of a mixture of two von Mises distributions.

dmixedvm(theta, mu1, mu2, kappa1, kappa2, p)

`theta`	vector of values at which to evaluate the density function.
`mu1`	mean direction in radians of one of the two von Mises distributions.
`mu2`	mean direction in radians of the other von Mises distribution.
`kappa1`	concentration parameter of one of the two von Mises distributions.
`kappa2`	concentration parameter of the other von Mises distribution.
`p`	mixing proportion.

Evaluates the density function p*VM(mu1, kappa1) + (1-p)*VM(mu2, kappa2), where VM is the von Mises density function.

Evaluates the density function of a mixture of two von Mises distributions at a given vector of values, theta.
