Consistency of the Maximum Likelihood Estimator for General Hidden Markov Models
Abstract. Consider a parametrized family of general hidden Markov models, where both the observed and unobserved components take values in a complete separable metric space. We prove that the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of the parameter is strongly consistent under a rather minimal set of assumptions. As special cases of our main result, we obtain consistency in a large class of nonlinea...
متن کاملConsistency of the Maximum Likelihood Estimator of Evolutionary Tree
Maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) methods are widely used for evolutionary tree. As evolutionary tree is not a smooth parameter, the consistency of its MLE has been a topic of debate. It has been noted without proof that the classical proof of consistency by Wald holds for the MLE of evolutionary tree. Other proofs of consistency under various models were also proposed. Here we will discuss s...
متن کاملExact Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Observation-Driven Econometric Models
The possibility of exact maximum likelihood estimation of many observation-driven models remains an open question. Often only approximate maximum likelihood estimation is attempted, because the unconditional density needed for exact estimation is not known in closed form. Using simulation and nonparametric density estimation techniques that facilitate empirical likelihood evaluation, we develop...
متن کاملA Microeconomic Interpretation of the Maximum Entropy Estimator of Multinomial Logit Models and Its Equivalence to the Maximum Likelihood Estimator
Maximum entropy models are often used to describe supply and demand behavior in urban transportation and land use systems. However, they have been criticized for not representing behavioral rules of system agents and because their parameters seems to adjust only to modeler-imposed constraints. In response, it is demonstrated that the solution to the entropy maximization problem with linear cons...
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.
