However, in the case that the experimental errors do belong to a normal distribution, the least-squares estimator is also a maximum likelihood estimator.
22.
For determining the maximum likelihood estimators of the log-normal distribution parameters ? and ?, we can use the same procedure as for the normal distribution.
23.
:I believe ( although did not check rigorously ) that maximum likelihood estimator of " n " would be maximum of your set of numbers.
24.
The resulting regularized estimator ( \ delta A + ( 1-\ delta ) B ) can be shown to outperform the maximum likelihood estimator for small samples.
25.
Then he used these theorems to give rigorous proofs of theorems proven by Fisher and Hotelling related to Fisher's maximum likelihood estimator for estimating a parameter of a distribution.
26.
Although an EM iteration does increase the observed data ( i . e ., marginal ) likelihood function, no guarantee exists that the sequence converges to a maximum likelihood estimator.
27.
The significance of this choice is that this weighted mean is the maximum likelihood estimator of the mean of the probability distributions under the assumption that they are independent and normally distributed with the same mean.
28.
Finding the maximum with respect to a shape parameter involves taking the partial derivative with respect to the shape parameter and setting the expression equal to zero yielding the maximum likelihood estimator of the shape parameters:
29.
The statistic is particularly useful if one takes " T " to be a maximum likelihood estimator, which in general will not be sufficient; then one can ask for an ancillary complement.
30.
Compound words are written together in Norwegian, which can cause words to become very long, for example " sannsynlighetsmaksimeringsestimator " ( maximum likelihood estimator ) and " menneskerettighetsorganisasjoner " ( human rights organizations ).
