Continuous scaled phase-type distributions

We study random variables arising as the product of phase-type distributions and continuous random variables, revisiting their asymptotic properties, and developing an expectation-maximization algorithm for their statistical analysis. Throughout, emphasis is made on closed-form formulas for various functionals of the resulting mixed distributions, which facilitates their analysis and implementation.
