Description: Fits the lifespan datasets of biological systems such as
        yeast, fruit flies, and other similar biological units with
        well-known finite mixture models introduced by Farewell et al.
        (1982) <doi:10.2307/2529885> and Al-Hussaini et al. (2000)
        <doi:10.1080/00949650008812033>. Estimates parameter space
        fitting of a lifespan dataset with finite mixtures of
        parametric distributions. Computes the following tasks; 1)
        Estimates parameter space of the finite mixture model by
        implementing the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm. 2)
        Finds a sequence of four goodness-of-fit measures consist of
        Akaike Information Criterion (AIC), Bayesian Information
        Criterion (BIC), Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS), and log-likelihood
        (log-likelihood) statistics. 3)The initial values is determined
        by k-means clustering.
