Maximum likelihood estimation for cooperative sequential adsorption
We consider a model for a time series of spatial locations, in which points are placed sequentially at random into an initially empty region of R, and given the current configuration of points, the likelihood at location x for the next particle is proportional to a specified function βk of the current number (k) of points within a specified distance of x. We show that the maximum likelihood est...
متن کاملSequential maximum likelihood estimation for reflected Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes
The paper studies the properties of a sequential maximum likelihood estimator of the drift parameter in a one dimensional reflected Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. We observe the process until the observed Fisher information reaches a specified precision level. We derive the explicit formulas for the sequential estimator and its mean squared error. The estimator is shown to be unbiased and uniforml...
متن کاملMaximum likelihood estimation for stochastic differential equations with random effects
We consider N independent stochastic processes (Xi(t), t ∈ [0, Ti]), i = 1, . . . , N , defined by a stochastic differential equation with drift term depending on a random variable φi. The distribution of the random effect φi depends on unknown parameters which are to be estimated from the continuous observation of the processes Xi. We give the expression of the exact likelihood. When the drift...
متن کاملMaximum Likelihood vs. Sequential Normalized Maximum Likelihood in On-line Density Estimation
The paper considers sequential prediction of individual sequences with log loss (online density estimation) using an exponential family of distributions. We first analyze the regret of the maximum likelihood (“follow the leader”) strategy. We find that this strategy is (1) suboptimal and (2) requires an additional assumption about boundedness of the data sequence. We then show that both problem...
متن کاملComparison of Maximum Pseudo Likelihood and Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Exponential Family Random Graph Models
The statistical modeling of social network data is difficult due to the complex dependence structure of the tie variables. Statistical exponential families of distributions provide a flexible way to model such dependence. They enable the statistical characteristics of the network to be encapsulated within an exponential family random graph (ERG) model. For a long time, however, likelihood-based...
