Maximum Smoothed Likelihood Estimation
Looking myopically at the larger features of the likelihood function, absent some fine detail, can theoretically improve maximum likelihood estimation. Such estimators are, in fact, used routinely, since numerical techniques for maximizing a computationally expensive likelihood function or for maximizing a Monte Carlo approximation to a likelihood function may be unable to investigate small sca...
متن کاملMaximum Likelihood Estimator for Hidden Markov Models in Continuous Time
The paper studies large sample asymptotic properties of the Maximum Likelihood Estimator (MLE) for the parameter of a continuous time Markov chain, observed in white noise. Using the method of weak convergence of likelihoods due to I.Ibragimov and R.Khasminskii [14], consistency, asymptotic normality and convergence of moments are established for MLE under certain strong ergodicity conditions o...
متن کاملLecture 22: Maximum Likelihood Estimator
In the first part of this lecture, we will deal with the consistency and asymptotic distribution of maximum likelihood estimator. The second part of the lecture focuses on signal estimation/tracking. An estimator is said to be consistent if it converges to the quantity being estimated. This section speaks about the consistency of MLE and conditions under which MLE is consistent.
متن کاملMaximum Smoothed Likelihood for Multivariate Mixtures
We introduce an algorithm for estimating the parameters in a finite mixture of completely unspecified multivariate components in at least three dimensions under the assumption of conditionally independent coordinate dimensions. We prove that this algorithm, based on a majorization-minimization idea, possesses a desirable descent property just as any EM algorithm does. We discuss the similaritie...
متن کاملMaximum Weighted Likelihood Estimator in Logistic Regression
The least weighted squares estimator is a well known technique in robust regression. Its likelihood analogy in logistic regression is the maximum weighted likelihood estimator, proposed in Vandev and Neykov (1998) and Mueller and Neykov (2003). This article mentions already proved properties, shows its inconsistency and compare it to the other estimators by an extensive simulation. Introduction...
