If I have a mixture model with a Gaussian (for the central tendency) and a Uniform (for the outliers), is there some way I can look at the samples of the component distributions? Since they are distributions, they don’t have names… If I make the mixture model “by hand” (as in @junpenglao ’s schizoph…

Can we access the component distributions in a mixture model?

By sample you mean posterior samples? In that case it is not possible as in a marginalized mixture model they are blend together.
