A likelihood function for the frequency of the A1 allele when 2 A1 alleles are observed in a sample of 10 alleles. The vertical dashed line is drawn through the maximum value of the likelihood ...

An explicit procedure is given to obtain the exact maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters in a regression model with ARMA time series errors with possibly nonconsecutive data. The method is ...

The paper presents the results of an inquiry concerning the small sample relative efficiency of maximum likelihood and best unbiased estimators of reliability functions of one-unit systems. Three ...

This example and notation are taken from Bard (1974). A two-equation model is used to fit U.S. production data for the years 1909-1949, where z 1 is capital input, z 2 is labor input, z 3 is real ...

The following data are taken from Lawless (1982, p.193) and represent the number of days it took rats painted with a carcinogen to develop carcinoma. The last 2 observations are censored data from a ...
