Maximum likelihood estimation of the multivariate normal mixture model
The Hessian of the multivariate normal mixture model is derived, and estimators of the information matrix are obtained, thus enabling consistent estimation of all parameters and their precisions. The usefulness of the new theory is illustrated with two examples and some simulation experiments. The newly proposed estimators appear to be superior to the existing ones. AMS 1991 subject classificat...
متن کاملPenalized Maximum Likelihood Estimator for Skew Normal Mixtures
Skew normal mixture models provide a more flexible framework than the popular normal mixtures for modelling heterogeneous data with asymmetric behaviors. Due to the unboundedness of likelihood function and the divergency of shape parameters, the maximum likelihood estimators of the parameters of interest are often not well defined, leading to dissatisfactory inferential process. We put forward ...
متن کاملLecture 22: Maximum Likelihood Estimator
In the first part of this lecture, we will deal with the consistency and asymptotic distribution of maximum likelihood estimator. The second part of the lecture focuses on signal estimation/tracking. An estimator is said to be consistent if it converges to the quantity being estimated. This section speaks about the consistency of MLE and conditions under which MLE is consistent.
متن کاملMaximum likelihood multivariate calibration.
Two new approaches to multivariate calibration are described that, for the first time, allow information on measurement uncertainties to be included in the calibration process in a statistically meaningful way. The new methods, referred to as maximum likelihood principal components regression (MLPCR) and maximum likelihood latent root regression (MLLRR), are based on principles of maximum likel...
متن کاملNormalized Maximum Likelihood with Luckiness for Multivariate Normal Distributions
The normalized maximum likelihood (NML) is one of the most important distribution in coding theory and statistics. NML is the unique solution (if exists) to the pointwise minimax regret problem. However, NML is not defined even for simple family of distributions such as the normal distributions. Since there does not exist any meaningful minimax-regret distribution for such case, it has been poi...
