Likelihood Function through the Delta Approximation in Mixed SDE Models
Stochastic differential equations (SDE) appropriately describe a variety of phenomena occurring in random environments, such as the growth dynamics of individual animals.

The connection between quasi-likelihood functions, exponential family models and nonlinear weighted least squares is examined. Consistency and asymptotic normality of the parameter estimates are discussed under second moment assumptions. The parameter estimates are shown to satisfy a property of asymptotic optimality similar in spirit to, but more ...

Maximum likelihood estimation for score-driven models
We establish strong consistency and asymptotic normality of the maximum likelihood estimator for stochastic time-varying parameter models driven by the score of the predictive conditional likelihood function.

Likelihood-based Imprecise Regression [PDF]
We introduce a new approach to regression with imprecisely observed data, combining likelihood inference with ideas from imprecise probability theory, and thereby taking different kinds of uncertainty into account.

LAN property for discretely observed solutions to Lévy driven SDE’s
The LAN property is proved in the statistical model based on discrete-time observations of a solution to a Lévy driven SDE. The proof is based on a general sufficient condition for a statistical model based on discrete observations of a Markov process to

Maximum Penalized Likelihood Estimation for the Reliability Function [PDF]
This paper considers the problem of estimating probability density function based on maximum Maximum Penalized Likelihood Estimation , we will review some of the previous studies on Maximum Penalized Likelihood Estimation ( MPLE) approaches. Finally,

Tests for Global Maximum of the Likelihood Function [PDF]
Given a relative maximum of the log-likelihood function, how to assess whether it is the global maximum? This paper investigates a statistical tool, which answers this question by posing it as a hypothesis testing problem. A general framework for constructing tests for the global maximum is given.

Fast likelihood-free cosmology with neural density estimators and active learning [PDF]
Likelihood-free inference provides a framework for performing rigorous Bayesian inference using only forward simulations, properly accounting for all physical and observational effects that can be successfully included in the simulations.

Likelihood for statistically equivalent models [PDF]
In likelihood inference we usually assume that the model is fixed and then base inference on the corresponding likelihood function. Often, however, the choice of model is rather arbitrary, and there may be other models which fit the data equally well. We
