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 kernel density estimation
Methods for improving the basic kernel density estimator include variable locations, variable bandwidths (often called variable kernels) and variable weights. Currently these methods are implemented separately and via pilot estimation of variation functions derived from asymptotic considerations. In this paper, we propose a simple maximum likelihood procedure which allows (in its greatest gener...
متن کاملJoint Angle-delay Estimation Based on Smoothed Maximum-likelihood Algorithm
In this paper, a novel maximum likelihood algorithm for joint angle and delay estimation is developed to identify the specular components of channel fading for uniform linear array based on the physical propagation channel model. Frequency domain presmoothing is applied to the structured frequency transfer matrix before the estimation procedure in order to utilize substantial observations. Iter...
متن کاملSmoothed log-concave maximum likelihood estimation with applications
We study the smoothed log-concave maximum likelihood estimator of a probability distribution on Rd. This is a fully automatic nonparametric density estimator, obtained as a canonical smoothing of the log-concave maximum likelihood estimator. We demonstrate its attractive features both through an analysis of its theoretical properties and a simulation study. Moreover, we use our methodology to d...
متن کاملThe Development of Maximum Likelihood Estimation Approaches for Adaptive Estimation of Free Speed and Critical Density in Vehicle Freeways
The performance of many traffic control strategies depends on how much the traffic flow models have been accurately calibrated. One of the most applicable traffic flow model in traffic control and management is LWR or METANET model. Practically, key parameters in LWR model, including free flow speed and critical density, are parameterized using flow and speed measurements gathered by inductive ...
