The relative performance of targeted maximum likelihood estimators.
There is an active debate in the literature on censored data about the relative performance of model based maximum likelihood estimators, IPCW-estimators, and a variety of double robust semiparametric efficient estimators. Kang and Schafer (2007) demonstrate the fragility of double robust and IPCW-estimators in a simulation study with positivity violations. They focus on a simple missing data p...
متن کاملMaximum Likelihood and Restricted Likelihood Solutions in Multiple-Method Studies
A formulation of the problem of combining data from several sources is discussed in terms of random effects models. The unknown measurement precision is assumed not to be the same for all methods. We investigate maximum likelihood solutions in this model. By representing the likelihood equations as simultaneous polynomial equations, the exact form of the Groebner basis for their stationary poin...

Maximum likelihood (ML) is a popular method for inferring a phylogenetic tree of the evolutionary relationship of a set of taxa, from observed homologous aligned genetic sequences of the taxa. Generally, the computation of the ML tree is based on numerical methods, which in a few cases, are known to converge to a local maximum on a tree, which is suboptimal. The extent of this problem is unknow...
متن کاملMaximum Likelihood Molecular Clock Comb: Analytic Solutions
Maximum likelihood (ML) is increasingly used as an optimality criterion for selecting evolutionary trees, but finding the global optimum is a hard computational task. Because no general analytic solution is known, numeric techniques such as hill climbing or expectation maximization (EM), are used in order to find optimal parameters for a given tree. So far, analytic solutions were derived only ...
متن کاملFrank Keller Solutions for Tutorial 2 : Maximum Likelihood Estimation
Solution 1: The goal of MLE is to estimate optimal values for each of the model’s parameters by maximizing the likelihood of the data given the parameters. MLE provides an answer to the question “which model instance best fits the data?” when “best fits” is defined as “gives the most evidence for”. If θ is a particular assignment of values to the model’s parameters and y represents the observed...
