Moments of doubly truncated multivariate normal mean-mixture distributions

Abstract

Recently, considerable interest has been in deriving explicit expressions for moment of different truncated multivariate distributions. This is due to their usefulness in developing efficient EM-algorithm for the maximum likelihood estimation of the corresponding distributional parameters. One rich family of distributions is the multivariate normal mean-mixture distribution as it includes a number of important multivariate distributions as special cases. In this article, we derive exact expressions for the first two moments of doubly truncated multivariate normal mean-mixture distributions, from which results for various special cases are then deduced.
