Closed-Form Maximum Likelihood Estimates for Spatial Problems
This manuscript introduces the matrix exponential as a way of specifying spatial transformations of the data. The matrix exponential spatial specification (MESS) simplifies the log-likelihood, leading to a closed form maximum likelihood solution. The computational advantages of this model make it ideal for applications involving large data sets such as census and real estate data. The manuscrip...
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 کاملConsistency of Semiparametric Maximum Likelihood Estimators for Two-Phase Sampling
Semiparametric maximum likelihood estimators have recently been proposed for a class of two-phase, outcome-dependent sampling models. All of them were "restricted" maximum likelihood estimators, in the sense that the maximization is carried out only over distributions concentrated on the observed values of the covariate vectors. In this paper, the authors give conditions for consistency of thes...
متن کاملA comparison of algorithms for maximum likelihood estimation of Spatial GLM models
In spatial generalized linear mixed models, spatial correlation is assumed by adding normal latent variables to the model. In these models because of the non-Gaussian spatial response and the presence of latent variables the likelihood function cannot usually be given in a closed form, thus the maximum likelihood approach is very challenging. The main purpose of this paper is to introduce two n...
متن کاملSemiparametric Maximum Likelihood Inference for Truncated or Biased-sampling Data
Sample selection bias has long been recognized in many fields including clinical trials, epidemiology studies, genome-wide association studies, and wildlife management. This paper investigates the maximum likelihood estimation for censored survival data with selection bias under the Cox regression models where the selection process is modeled parametrically. A novel expectation-maximization alg...
