Is there any way to do finite mixture model in SAS? I know SAS can
estimate the parameters once you know the number of segments/classes
there (usually example is 2), but unlike other programs, I can't find
anything about identification of the number of segments/classes in the
data using SAS. They usually suggest doing this with Mplus, Winbugs,
etc. But I am not familiar with any of that.. Any suggestions? Thank
you!

Wensui,

Can you elaborate on your question a little more?

Try mclust package in r with the BIC values for a one line code on this
