Maximum-likelihood methods in wavefront sensing: stochastic models and likelihood functions.
Maximum-likelihood (ML) estimation in wavefront sensing requires careful attention to all noise sources and all factors that influence the sensor data. We present detailed probability density functions for the output of the image detector in a wavefront sensor, conditional not only on wavefront parameters but also on various nuisance parameters. Practical ways of dealing with nuisance parameter...
متن کاملMaximum Likelihood Estimation of Censored Stochastic Frontier Models
This paper takes issues with the appropriateness of applying the stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) technique to account for environmental effects and statistical noise in the popular three-stage data envelopment analysis (DEA). A correctly specified SFA model with a censored dependent variable and the associated maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) are proposed. The simulations show that the fi...
متن کاملMaximum-likelihood stochastic-transformation adaptation of hidden Markov models
The recognition accuracy in recent large vocabulary automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems is highly related to the existing mismatch between the training and testing sets. For example, dialect differences across the training and testing speakers result to a significant degradation in recognition performance. Some popular adaptation approaches improve the recognition performance of speech r...
متن کاملQuasi-Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Long-Memory Stochastic Volatility Models*
We analyze finite sample properties of the quasi-maximum likelihood estimators of longmemory stochastic volatility models. The estimates are done in the time domain using autoregressive and moving average in the state space representation. The results are compared with usual estimators of the long-memory parameter.
متن کاملParticle methods for maximum likelihood estimation in latent variable models
Standard methods for maximum likelihood parameter estimation in latent variable models rely on the Expectation-Maximization algorithm and its Monte Carlo variants. Our approach is different and motivated by similar considerations to simulated annealing; that is we build a sequence of artificial distributions whose support concentrates itself on the set of maximum likelihood estimates. We sample...
