Maximum Likelihood Estimator Suppose a random sample X1,X2,⋯,Xn whose assumed probability distribution depends on some unknown parameter θ. Given, observed values X1=x1,X2=x2,⋯,Xn=xn, the likelihood of θ is the function L(θ)=f(x1,x2,...
Let X1, X2, , Xn be an iid random sample of size n from an Exponential ( ) distribution with probability density function Find the maximum likelihood estimator for , . Then using that result, calculate the estimate when x1=1, ...

Let X1...Xn be a sample from a distribution with a uniform density function between a and b. Determine the maximum likelihood estimator of a and b. a) Using the MGF method, prove the following result: Suppose X_1, ..., X_n be mutually independent random var...
6. You will see the 4 best fits on the graph, and detailed parameters of the best 4 distributions under the graph. The parameters are: - Distribution name. - NLogL - Negative of the log likelihood. - BIC - Bayesian information criterion. ...
The maximum increase in predictive power provided by data augmentation is reached when the training data is replicated one time. Therefore, extending the original training data with one perturbed repetition thereof represents a reasonable trade-off between the increased performance of the models and the...

Profile likelihood confidence intervals are a robust alternative to Wald's method if the asymptotic properties of the maximum likelihood estimator are not met. However, the constrained optimization problem defining profile likelihood confidence intervals can be difficult to solve in these situations, ...
nonparametric maximum likelihood estimatorThe estimation of the nonparametric maximum likelihood estimate (NPMLE) of the bivariate distribution function on interval-censored data is a recent topic of research. Among other things, it provides a basic tool for checking a parametric model for the bivariate...
