reinstate: Reinstate the Binned Data to the Raw Data

Description

This function creates a numeric vector approximating the raw data from binned data

Usage

reinstate(data)

Value

The function returns a numeric vector.

Arguments

data

a three-column matrix representing the raw data

Details

The function reinstate creates a numeric vector by generating \(n_i\) random data from the Uniform distribution \(U(a_i, b_i)\) for \(i = 1, \dots, r\) and then combine all random data together. \(a_i, b_i, n_i\) are the first, second and the third column of the matrix data and \(r\) is the number of bins. It is used for enabling parameter initialization for EM algorithm when we fit mixture models for binned data.
