Likelihood Methods for Point Processes with Refractoriness
Likelihood-based encoding models founded on point processes have received significant attention in the literature because of their ability to reveal the information encoded by spiking neural populations. We propose an approximation to the likelihood of a point-process model of neurons that holds under assumptions about the continuous time process that are physiologically reasonable for neural s...
متن کاملQuasi-likelihood for Spatial Point Processes.
Fitting regression models for intensity functions of spatial point processes is of great interest in ecological and epidemiological studies of association between spatially referenced events and geographical or environmental covariates. When Cox or cluster process models are used to accommodate clustering not accounted for by the available covariates, likelihood based inference becomes computat...
متن کاملWeighted Least Squares Estimators for a Change-Point
This article deals with estimation of the change-point in a sequence of independent random variables. It is based on a least squares process endowed with a weight function. For finite sample sizes we derive bounds of the error probability. They immediately yield rates of consistency which are known to be optimal. Our findings extend and sharpen earlier results of Antoch, Hušková and Veraverbeke...
متن کاملWeighted Sampling, Maximum Likelihood and Minimum Divergence Estimators
This paper explores Maximum Likelihood in parametric models in the context of Sanov type Large Deviation Probabilities. MLE in parametric models under weighted sampling is shown to be associated with the minimization of a specific divergence criterion defined with respect to the distribution of the weights. Some properties of the resulting inferential procedure are presented; Bahadur efficiency...
متن کاملMaximum likelihood estimation of determinantal point processes
Determinantal point processes (DPPs) have wide-ranging applications in machine learning, where they are used to enforce the notion of diversity in subset selection problems. Many estimators have been proposed, but surprisingly the basic properties of the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) have received little attention. The difficulty is that it is a non-concave maximization problem, and such f...
