Abstract: In this study, we propose a robust mixture regression procedure based on the skew t distribution to model heavy-tailed and/or skewed errors in a mixture regression setting. Using the scale mixture representation of the skew t distribution, we give an Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm to compute the maximum likelihood (ML) estimates for the paramaters of interest. The performance of proposed estimators is demonstrated by a simulation study and a real data example.
