Maximum Likelihood Parameter Estimation
The problem of estimating the parameters for continuous-time partially observed systems is discussed. New exact lters for obtaining Maximum Likelihood (ML) parameter estimates via the Expectation Maximization algorithm are derived. The methodology exploits relations between incomplete and complete data likelihood and gradient of likelihood functions, which are derived using Girsanov's measure t...
متن کاملThree-Parameter Kappa Distribution Maximum likelihood Estimates and Likelihood Ratio Tests
Methods are presented for obtaining maximum likelihood estimates and tests of hypotheses involving the three-parameter kappa distribution. The obtained methods are then applied by fitting this distribution to realized sets of precipitation and streamflow data and testing for seeding effect differences between realized seeded and nonseeded sets of precipitation data. The kappa distribution appea...
متن کاملMaximum likelihood estimation for Tukey's three corners
We use the EM algorithm to derive recursive expressions for maximum likelihood location and scale estimators for Tukey’s corner distributions, in particular the one-wild. This now enables optimal estimation for the triefficiency criterion used to appraise robust estimators. The effect of improved estimation for the one-wild case is investigated. Simulations are conducted, both to illustrate the...
متن کاملMaximum-Likelihood Circle-Parameter Estimation via Convolution
In this paper, we present an interpretation of the Maximum Likelihood Estimator (MLE) and the Delogne-Kåsa Estimator (DKE) for circle-parameter estimation via convolution. Under a certain model for theoretical images, this convolution is an exact description of the MLE. We use our convolution based MLE approach to find good starting estimates for the parameters of a circle, that is, the centre ...
متن کاملDetermination of Maximum Bayesian Entropy Probability Distribution
In this paper, we consider the determination methods of maximum entropy multivariate distributions with given prior under the constraints, that the marginal distributions or the marginals and covariance matrix are prescribed. Next, some numerical solutions are considered for the cases of unavailable closed form of solutions. Finally, these methods are illustrated via some numerical examples.
