A comparison of algorithms for maximum likelihood estimation of Spatial GLM models
In spatial generalized linear mixed models, spatial correlation is assumed by adding normal latent variables to the model. In these models because of the non-Gaussian spatial response and the presence of latent variables the likelihood function cannot usually be given in a closed form, thus the maximum likelihood approach is very challenging. The main purpose of this paper is to introduce two n...

‎Recently a first-order Spatial Integer-valued Autoregressive‎ ‎SINAR(1,1) model was introduced to model spatial data that comes‎ ‎in counts citep{ghodsi2012}‎. ‎Some properties of this model‎ ‎have been established and the Yule-Walker estimator has been‎ ‎proposed for this model‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we introduce the...
متن کاملEstimation of Dynamic Models with Nonparametric Simulated Maximum Likelihood
We propose a simulated maximum likelihood estimator (SMLE) for general stochastic dynamic models based on nonparametric kernel methods. The method requires that, while the actual likelihood function cannot be written down, we can still simulate observations from the model. From the simulated observations, we estimate the unknown density of the model nonparametrically by kernel methods, and then...
متن کاملA Nonparametric Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Conditional Moment Restriction Models
This paper studies estimation of a conditional moment restriction model using the nonparametric maximum likelihood approach proposed by Gallant and Nychka (1987). Under some sufficient conditions, we show that the estimator of some finite dimensional parameters is asymptotically normally distributed and attains the semiparametric efficiency bound and that the estimator of the density function i...
متن کاملEstimation of Hidden Markov Models with Nonparametric Simulated Maximum Likelihood
We propose a nonparametric simulated maximum likelihood estimation (NPSMLE) with built-in nonlinear ltering. By recursively approximating the unknown conditional densities, our method enables a maximum likelihood estimation of general dynamic models with latent variables including time-inhomogeneous and non-stationary processes. We establish the asymptotic properties of the NPSMLEs for hidden...
