Uniqueness of the maximum likelihood estimator for k-monotone densities
We prove uniqueness of the maximum likelihood estimator for the class of k−monotone densities. AMS 2000 subject classifications: Primary 62G07.
متن کاملA nonparametric monotone maximum likelihood estimator of time trend for repairable systems data
The trend-renewal-process (TRP)is defined to be a time-transformed renewal process, where the time transformation is given by a trend function λ(·) which is similar to the intensity of a nonhomogeneous Poisson process (NHPP). A nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator of the trend function of a TRP is obtained under the often natural condition that λ(·) is monotone. An algorithm for computing...
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 estimator for magneto-acoustic localisation
This paper is devoted to the localization of magnetoacoustic sources moving in a straight line at a constant speed. Our technique is based on the association of narrow band acoustic signals and magnetostatic measurements. First of all, we describe features that make possible the association of magnetic and acoustic data, secondly, we show that positioning accuracy is much improved by this assoc...
متن کاملOn the rate of convergence of the maximum like-lihood estimator of a k-monotone density.
Bounds for the bracketing entropy of the classes of bounded k-monotone functions on [0, A] are obtained under both the Hellinger distance and the L(p)(Q) distance, where 1 ≤ p < ∞ and Q is a probability measure on [0, A]. The result is then applied to obtain the rate of convergence of the maximum likelihood estimator of a k-monotone density.
