Likelihood decision functions [PDF]
Electronic Journal of Statistics, 2012 In both classical and Bayesian approaches, statistical inference is unified and generalized by the corresponding decision theory. This is not the case for the likelihood approach to statistical inference, in spite of the manifest success of the ...

THE LIKELIHOOD EQUATION, CONSISTENCY AND THE MAXIMA OF THE LIKELIHOOD FUNCTION [PDF]
Annals of Eugenics, 1947 The articles published by the Annals of Eugenics (1925–1954) have been made available online as an historical archive intended for scholarly use. The work of eugenicists was often pervaded by prejudice against racial, ethnic and disabled groups. The online publication of this material for scholarly research purposes is not an endorsement of those views

Likelihood-enhanced fast translation functions [PDF]
Acta Crystallographica Section D Biological Crystallography, 2005 This paper is a companion to a recent paper on fast rotation functions [Storoni et al. (2004), Acta Cryst. D60, 432-438], which showed how a Taylor-series expansion of the maximum-likelihood rotation function leads to improved likelihood-enhanced fast rotation functions.

A New Numerical Algorithm of Three Parameter Generalized Extreme Value Distribution of Wind Speed [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2021 Maximum likelihood estimation method is used to solve the problem of parameter estimation of three-parameter generalized extreme value distribution. Based on the theory of order reducing，a new numerical algorithm is presented to resolve the problem of ...

Renormalization group computation of likelihood functions for cosmological data sets [PDF]
, 2018 I show how a renormalization group (RG) method can be used to incrementally integrate the information in cosmological large-scale structure data sets (including CMB, galaxy redshift surveys, etc.).

Jeffreys-prior penalty, finiteness and shrinkage in binomial-response generalized linear models [PDF]
, 2020 Penalization of the likelihood by Jeffreys' invariant prior, or by a positive power thereof, is shown to produce finite-valued maximum penalized likelihood estimates in a broad class of binomial generalized linear models.

Prostate-specific antigen testing accuracy in community practice
BMC Family Practice, 2002 Background Most data on prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing come from urologic cohorts comprised of volunteers for screening programs. We evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of PSA testing for detecting prostate cancer in community practice.

Estimations of Modified Lindley Parameters Using Progressive Type-II Censoring with Applications
Axioms, 2023 This study addresses the estimation problems of the modified Lindley distribution using a progressive Type-II censoring plan. Using the maximum likelihood and maximum product of spacing and Bayesian estimation methods, the unknown parameter, reliability,
