Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Parameters in Generalized Functional Linear Model
Sometimes, in practice, data are a function of another variable, which is called functional data. If the scalar response variable is categorical or discrete, and the covariates are functional, then a generalized functional linear model is used to analyze this type of data. In this paper, a truncated generalized functional linear model is studied and a maximum likelihood approach is used to esti...
متن کاملMaximum likelihood estimates of pairwise rearrangement distances.
Accurate estimation of evolutionary distances between taxa is important for many phylogenetic reconstruction methods. Distances can be estimated using a range of different evolutionary models, from single nucleotide polymorphisms to large-scale genome rearrangements. Corresponding corrections for genome rearrangement distances fall into 3 categories: Empirical computational studies, Bayesian/MC...
متن کاملMaximum likelihood estimation of survival curve parameters.
A maximum likelihood procedure is presented for the estimation of the parameters in a survival curve which is used in the quantitative investigation of cytological damage resulting from ionizing radiation. This estimation procedure is developed under the assumption that the observations are distributed as independent Poisson random variables. In addition, a weighted least squares procedure, whi...

متن کاملMaximum Likelihood Estimation of Dirichlet Distribution Parameters
The Dirichlet distribution is one that has often been turned to in Bayesian statistical inference as a convenient prior distribution to place over proportional data. To properly motivate its study, we will begin with a simple coin toss example, where the task will be to find a suitable distribution P which summarizes our beliefs about the probability that the toss will result in heads, based on...
