One of the most fundamental concepts of modern statistics is that of likelihood. In each of the discrete random variables we have considered thus far, the distribution depends on one or more parameters that are, in most statistical applications, unknown. In the Poisson distribution, the parameter...
In other words, when we deal with continuous distributions such as the normal distribution, the likelihood function is equal to the joint density of the sample. We will explain below how things change in the case of discrete distributions. The log-likelihood function is How the log-likelihood i...

Likelihood is a tool for summarizing the data’s evidence about unknown parameters. Let us denote the unknown parameter(s) of a distribution generically by θ. Since the probability distribution depends on θ, we can make this dependence explicit by writing f(x) asf(x; θ). For example, in...

As far as the asymptotic approach is concerned, we will focus on the chi-bar-squared distribution and methods for obtaining the weights for this distribution. The proposed empirical approach makes use of parametric bootstrapping. 展开 关键词: Likelihood-ratio test for order-restricted log-linear ...
We show that maximum likelihood estimates of cell means are the same as those found under independent Poisson sampling. There is no maximum likelihood estimate for the shape parameter in general. We propose an estimate of the shape parameter based on the mean and quantiles of Pearson's chi-...
Using the formulas of the normal distribution maximum-likelihood parameter method, we deduce that, for the log-normal distribution, it holds that Researches on Damage Evolution and Acoustic Emission Characteristics of Rocks Risk-stratification scoring was proposed as beyond 95% probability, and the desi...
