2 Te ext lemma is from Fa ad Huag (2005), ad will be used trougout te rest of te proofs. Lemma. Let {(X i, Y i ), i =,..., } be i.i.d radom vectors from (X, Y ), were X is a radom vector ad Y is a scalar radom variable. Let f be te joit desity of (X, Y ), ad furter assume tat E Y r < ad x y r f(x, y)dy <. Let K( ) be a bouded positive fuctio wit bouded port, satisfyig a Lipscitz coditio. Te, [K (X i x)y i E{K (X i x)y i }] = O p(γ log /2 (/)), give 2ɛ, for some ɛ < /r, were γ = () /2. I order to prove te asymptotic properties of {ˆπ, ˆm, ˆσ 2 }, we first eed to study te asymptotic property of { π, m, σ 2 }, wic is te maximum local log-likeliood estimator of (5). Defie π j = { π j π j }, m j = { m j m j }, σ 2 j = { σ 2 j σ 2 j }. Let π = ( π,..., π k )T, m = ( m,..., m k )T, ad σ 2 = ( σ 2,..., σ k 2 )T. Furtermore, defie = (( m ) T, ( π ) T, ( σ 2 ) T ) T, β = (( π) T, ( σ 2 ) T ) T. Lemma 2. Suppose tat coditios (C2)-(C0) are satisfied, te, f (x)i (x)s = Op ( 2 + γ log /2 (/)), were S is defied i (3). Proof of Lemma 2. Sice { π, m, σ 2 } maximizes l (π, m, σ 2 ) defied i (5), it is easy to see tat maximizes l ( ) = {l((x) + γ, Y i ) l((x), Y i )}K (X i x), = S + 2 T W + o p ( 2 ), () were S = l((x), Y i ) K (X i x), W = 2 l((x), Y i ) T K (X i x), (2) ad te secod equality olds by Taylor expasio. It is easy to see tat W = f(x)i (x)+ o p (), ad terefore, l ( ) = S 2 f(x) T I (x) + o p ( 2 ). (3) By Lemma ad assumptio (C9), it ca be sow tat for all x X, W coverges to f(x)i (x) uiformly. From (3) ad assumptio (C7) ad (C9), we kow tat l ( ) is 2

3 covex fuctio defied o a covex ope set, we is large eoug. Terefore, by te covexity lemma (Pollard, 99), (S + 2 T W ) [S 2 f(x) T I (x) ] P 0 olds uiformly for all x X ad i ay compact set. We kow tat f (x)i (x)s is a uique maximizer of (3), ad by defiitio, is a maximizer of (), te, by Lemma A. of Carroll et al. (997), f (x)i (x)s P 0, wic also implies tat Sice maximizes (), 0 =γ =γ l((x) + γ, Yi ) K (X i x) l((x), Y i ) K (X i x) + γ 2 tat is, W + Op (γ 2 ) = S. Terefore, = f (x)i (x)s + o p (). (4) 2 l((x), Y i ) T K (X i x) + O p (γ 2 ), {W E(W )} + O p (γ 2 ) = S E(W ) = S + f(x)i (x). (5) From (4) ad (9), it is easy to sow tat = O p (). By Lemma, W E(W ) = O p { 2 + γ log /2 (/)}, tus {W E(W )} + O p (γ 2 ) = O p { 2 + γ log /2 (/)}. Combied wit (5), we ave S + f(x)i (x) = Op { 2 + γ log /2 (/)}. Sice f(x) ad I (x) are bouded ad cotiuous fuctios i a closed set of X ad I (x) is positive defiite, f (x)i S = Op { 2 + γ log /2 (/)}. Proof of Teorem. Defie ˆβ = (ˆβ β), were ˆβ maximizes l 2 (β) i (6). Let l( m(x i ), β, Y i ) = log{ k π j φ(y i m j (X i ), σj 2 }, l( m(x i ), β + β /, Y i ) = log{ k (π j + π j / )φ(y i m j (X i ), σ 2 j + σ 2 j / }. 3

4 Sice ˆβ maximizes l 2, it is easy to see tat ˆβ maximizes l (β ) = {l( m(x i ), β + β /, Y i ) l( m(x i ), β, Y i } = A β + 2 β T B β + o p ( β 2 ), were A = l( m(x i ),β,y i ) ad B β = 2 l( m(x i ),β,y i ). It ca be easily see β β T tat B = B + o p () wit B = E{I β (X)}, terefore, by quadratic approximatio lemma, Defie R = R + O p ( k etries of I ˆβ = B A + o p (). (6) 2 l(m(x i ),β,y i ) ( m(x β m T i ) m(x i )), te A = l(m(x i ),β,y i ) + β m m 2 ). Let ϕ(x t, Y t ) be a k vector wose elemets are te first (X t ) l((xt),yt). From assumptio (C), we kow tat O p { /2 [γ 2 + (X i ) γ 2 log /2 (/)]} = o p (). By Lemma 3, (X i ) (X i ) = f (X i )I X i ) + O p {γ 2 + γ 2 log /2 (/)}. Sice m(x i ) m(x t ) = O(X i X t ), R = 3/2 = R 2 + O p ( /2 2 ). 2 l(m(x i ), β, Y i ) β m T f (X i )ϕ(x t, Y t )K (X i X t ) + O p ( /2 2 ) l((x i ),Y t) K (X t It ca be sow tat E[ 2 l(m(x i ),β,y i ) f β m (X T i )K (X i X t )] = I βm (X t ). Let ϖ(x t, Y t ) = I βm (X t )ϕ(x t, Y t ), ad R 3 = /2 ϖ(x t, Y t ), te R 2 R P 3 0, ad terefore A = { l(m(x i), β, Y i ) β ϖ(x i, Y i )} + o p (), give 4 0. Let Σ = V ar{ l((x),y β ) see tat E(A ) = 0, terefore by (6), ϖ(x, Y )}, te Var(A ) = Σ. It ca be easily (ˆβ β) D N(0, B ΣB ). Proof of Teorem 2. Defie ˆm = ( ˆm(x) m(x)), were ˆm(x) maximizes (7). It ca be sow tat ˆm (x) = f(x) I m (x) Ŝ + o p (), (7) were Ŝ = l(m(x), ˆβ, Y i ) K (X i x). (8) m 4

5 Notice tat Ŝ = S + D + o p (). l(m(x), β, Y i ) K (X i x) + m (ˆβ β) 2 l(m(x), β, Y i ) m β T K (X i x) + o p () 2 l(m(x),β,y i ) were S is defied i (2). Sice (ˆβ β) = O p () ad K m β T (X i x) = f(x)iβm T (x) + o p(), te D = (ˆβ β) 2 l(m(x),β,y i ) K m β T (X i x) = f(x)iβm T (x) + o p(). Tus, from (7), ˆm (x) = f(x) I m (x) S + o p (). Let Λ(u x) = E[ l(m(x),β,y m ) X = u], it ca be sow tat E(S ) = [ 2 f(x)λ (x x) + f (x)λ (x x)]κ 2 2, V ar(s ) = f(x)i m (x)ν 0. (9) To complete te proof, let (x) = I m (x)[ 2 Λ (x x) + f (x)f (x)λ (x x)]κ 2 2, ad m (x) be a k vector wose elemets are te first k etries of (x), te ( ˆm(x) m(x) m (x) + o p ( 2 )) D N(0, f (x)i m (x)ν 0 ). Proof of Teorem 3. (i) Assume te latet variables {Z i, i =,..., } be a radom sample from populatio Z, te P (Z i = j Y, ) = π j φ(y m j, σ 2 j )/ k π jφ(y m j, σ 2 j ), ad terefore, log{ k π j φ(y i m j, σj 2 )} = log{π j φ(y i m j, σj 2 )} log{p (Z i = j Y, )}. (0) Give (l) (X i ) = (m (l) (X i ), π (l) (X i ), σ 2(l) (X i )), for ay i =,...,, P (Z i = j Y i, (l) (X i )) = p (l+) ij ad k p(l+) ij =. Terefore, by (0) l () = k { log{π j φ(y i m j, σj 2 )}p (l+) ij }K (X i x) k { log{p (Z i = j Y, )}p (l+) ij }K (X i x). () Based o te M-step of (8), (9) ad (0), we ave k { k { log{π (l+) j log{π (l) j (x)φ(y i m (l+) j (x)φ(y i m (l) j (x), σ2(l) j (x), σ 2(l+) j (x))}p (l+) ij }K (X i x) (x))}p (l+) }K (X i x). ij 5

6 To complete te proof, based o (), we oly eed to sow lim i probability. Defie L = U = k { log{ P (Z i = j Y i, (l+) (x)) P (Z i = j Y i, (l) (x)) }p(l+) ij }K (X i x) 0 k { log{ P (Z i = j Y i, (l+) (x)) P (Z i = j Y i, (l) (x)) }p(l+) ij }K (X i x), k log{ { P (Z i = j Y i, (l+) (x)) P (Z i = j Y i, (l) (x)) }p(l+) ij }K (X i x), te, by Jese s iequality, L U. We complete te proof by sowig tat U P 0. Witout loss of geerality, assume tat P (Z i = j Y, (l) (x)) δ > 0 for some small value δ. Sice E(U) = E{log[ k P (Z i =j Y i, (l+) (x)) P (Z i =j Y i, (l) (x)) P (Z i = j Y i, (l) (X i ))]K (X i x)}, by similar argumet as i te proof of Teorem 2 ad Teorem 3, it ca be sow tat E(U) 0, ad Var(U) = O p (() ). Terefore, by Cebysv s iequality, U = o p (), ad tus completes te proof. (ii) Notice tat P (Z i = j Y, m, ˆβ) = ˆπ j φ(y m j, ˆσ j 2 )/ k ˆπ jφ(y m j, ˆσ j 2 ), P (Z i = j Y i, m (l) (X i ), ˆβ) = p (l+) ij ad k p(l+) ij =, were p (l+) ij is defied i (). Te rest of te proof is i lie wit part (i), ad tus is omitted ere. (iii) Notice tat by fixig m( ) = m (l) ( ), l (π, m (l) ( ), σ 2 ) = l 2 (π, σ 2 ). Terefore, by te ascet property of te ordiary EM algoritm, l (π (l+), m (l) ( ), σ 2(l+) ) = l 2 (π (l+), σ 2(l+) ) l 2 (π (l), σ 2(l) ) = l (π (l), m (l) ( ), σ 2(l) ). Tus, to complete te proof, we oly eed to sow lim if [l (π (l+), m (l+) ( ), σ 2(l+) ) l (π (l+), m (l) ( ), σ 2(l+) )] 0. If we fix ˆπ = π (l+) ad ˆσ 2 = σ 2(l+), te by part (ii), lim if [l 3 (m (l+) (x)) l 3 (m (l) (x))] 0 i probability for ay x {X t, t =,..., }. Terefore, lim if lim if 2 f(x t ) [l 3 (m (l+) (X t )) l 3 (m (l) (X t ))] lim if f(x t ) [l 3 (m (l+) (X t )) l 3 (m (l) (X t ))] 0. Sice K( ) is symmetric about 0, 2 f(x t) l 3 (m (l) (X t )) = Γ(l) i, were Γ (l) i = k f(x t ) log[ ˆπ j φ(y i m (l) j (X t), ˆσ 2 j )]K (X t X i ). 6

7 It ca be sow tat E(Γ (l) i X i, Y i ) = log[ k ˆπ jφ(y i m (l) j (X i), ˆσ j 2 )](+o p ()), ad Var(Γ (l) i X i, Y i ) = O p (() ). Te fact tat E(Γ(l) i X i, Y i ) = l (π (l+), m (l) ( ), σ 2(l+) ), ad E(Γ(l+) i X i, Y i ) = l (π (l+), m (l+) ( ), σ 2(l+) ) completes te proof. Proof of Teorem 4. Sice ˆβ as faster covergece rate ta ˆm( ), ˆm( ) as te same asymptotic properties as if β were kow. Terefore, i te followig proof, we study te property of ˆm( ) assumig β to be kow. Defie l((x i),y i ) = q i, 2 l((x i ),Y i ) = q T i ad similarly, defie q mi, q mmi ad so o. Let be te estimator uder H (Huag et al., 203), ad ˆm be te estimator uder H 0 (model (). From previous proof, we ave i,j,l (X i ) (X i ) = f (X i )I (X i ) ˆm(X i ) m(x i ) = f (X i )I m (X i ) q t K (X t X i )( + o p ()), (2) q mt K (X t X i )( + o p ()). (3) By (2) ad (3), we ca obtai tat l( (X i ), Y i ) l((x i ), Y i ) = { q if T (X l )I (X l )q l K (X i X l ) i,l + q 2 if T 2 (X 2 l )I (X l )q l I (X l )q j K (X i X l )K (X j X l )}( + o p ()), l( ˆm(X i ), Y i ) i,j,l l(m(x i ), Y i ) = { q T mif (X l )Im (X l )q ml K (X i X l ) + q 2 mif T 2 (X 2 l )Im (X l )q mml Im (X l )q mj K (X i X l )K (X j X l )}( + o p ()), ad so, T = i,l [q T ii (X l )q l qmii T m (X l )q ml ]f (X l )K (X i X l ) i,l [qii T i,j,l I (X l )q j qmii T m (X l )q mml Im (X l )q mj ]f 2 (X l )K (X i X l )K (X j X l ) Λ + 2 Γ. (X l )q l By similar argumet as Fa et al. (200), it ca be sow tat uder coditios (C9)-(C2), as 0, 3/2, Λ = 2k K(0)Ef(X) + [q T ii (X l )q l qmii T m (X l )q ml ]f (X l )K (X i X l ) + o p ( /2 ), Γ = (2k ) Ef(X) l i K 2 (t)dt 2 K K (X i X j ) + o p ( /2 ). i<j [q T ii 7 (X i )q j qmii T m (X i )q mj ]f (X i )

8 Terefore, T = µ + W /2 + o p ( /2 ), were µ = (2k ) X [K(0) 0.5 K 2 (t)dt], W = i j {q T ii (X j )[2K (X i X j ) K K (X i X j )]f (X j )q j q T mii m (X j )[2K (X i X j ) K K (X i X j )]f (X j )q mj }. It ca be sow tat Var(W ) ζ, were ζ = 2(2k )Ef (X) [2K(t) K K(t)] 2 dt. Apply Propositio 3.2 i de Jog (987), we obtai tat W D N(0, ζ), ad completes te proof. Refereces Carroll, R.
