Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Weight Matrices for Targeted Homology Search
Genome annotation relies to a large extent on the recognition of homologs to already known genes. The starting point for such protocols is a collection of known sequences from one or more species, from which a model is constructed – either automatically or manually – that encodes the defining features of a single gene or a gene family. The quality of these models eventually determines the succe...
متن کاملPenalized maximum-likelihood estimation of covariance matrices with linear structure
y In this paper, a space-alternating generalized expectation-maximization (SAGE) algorithm is presented for the numerical computation of maximum-likelihood (ML) and penalized maximum-likelihood (PML) estimates of the parameters of covariance matrices with linear structure for complex Gaussian processes. By using a less informative hidden-data space and a sequential parameter-update scheme, a SA...
متن کاملComputationally efficient maximum-likelihood estimation of structured covariance matrices
A computationally e cient method for structured covariance matrix estimation is presented. The proposed method provides an Asymptotic (for large samples) Maximum Likelihood estimate of a structured covariance matrix and is referred to as AML. A closed-form formula for estimating Hermitian Toeplitz covariance matrices is derived which makes AML computationally much simpler than most existing Her...
متن کاملMaximum 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 Estimation ∗ Clayton
This module introduces the maximum likelihood estimator. We show how the MLE implements the likelihood principle. Methods for computing th MLE are covered. Properties of the MLE are discussed including asymptotic e ciency and invariance under reparameterization. The maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) is an alternative to the minimum variance unbiased estimator (MVUE). For many estimation proble...
