In this paper we propose a new similarity index, which can be used to compare model-based clustering solutions. We define also an adjusted-for-chance version, although we advise that, whenever feasible, bootstrap replications should be preferred to chance-corrected similarity indices. We...

In finite mixture model clustering, each component of the fitted mixture is usually associated with a cluster. In other words, each component of the mixture is interpreted as the probability distribution of the variables of interest conditionally on the membership to a given cluster. The...
