Distributions with densities that are very non-smooth and have tremendous integrated curvature (i.e., lots of wiggles) may require large numbers of normal components. The success of normal mixture models is also tied to the methods of inference. Given that many multivariate density ap-

people.eecs.berkeley.eduChapter 8 The exponential family: Basics In this chapter we extend the scope of our modeling toolbox to accommodate a variety of additional data types, including counts, time intervals and rates. We introduce the expo-nential family of distributions, a family that includes the Gaussian, binomial, multinomial,
