## Mixture of von Mises Distributions

### Description

Evaluates the density function of a mixture of two von Mises distributions.

### Usage

    dmixedvm(theta, mu1, mu2, kappa1, kappa2, p)

### Arguments

`theta` | vector of values at which to evaluate the density function.
`mu1` | mean direction in radians of one of the two von Mises distributions.
`mu2` | mean direction in radians of the other von Mises distribution.
`kappa1` | concentration parameter of one of the two von Mises distributions.
`kappa2` | concentration parameter of the other von Mises distribution.
`p` | mixing proportion.

### Details

Evaluates the density function p*VM(mu1, kappa1) + (1-p)*VM(mu2, kappa2), where VM is the von Mises density function.

### Value

Evaluates the density function of a mixture of two von Mises distributions at a given vector of values, theta.
