Maximum likelihood estimators for colony-forming units [PDF]
Measuring the abundance of microbes in a sample is a common procedure with a long history, but best practices are not well-conserved across microbiological fields. Serial dilution methods are commonly used to dilute bacterial cultures to produce countable

Semiparametric maximum likelihood probability density estimation.
A comprehensive methodology for semiparametric probability density estimation is introduced and explored. The probability density is modelled by sequences of mostly regular or steep exponential families generated by flexible sets of basis functions ...

Maximum Likelihood Coordinates
AbstractAny point inside a d‐dimensional simplex can be expressed in a unique way as a convex combination of the simplex's vertices, and the coefficients of this combination are called the barycentric coordinates of the point. The idea of barycentric coordinates extends to general polytopes with n vertices, but they are no longer unique if n > d+1 ...

Maximum Likelihood and Modified Maximum Likelihood Estimates of Linear Models with Errors Following Auto Regressive Process [PDF]
The estimation of parameters of linear models with errors following first order auto-regressive process has been investigated. The Modified Maximum likelihood estimates, introduced by Patterson and Thompson (1971,1974) have been derived.

Maximum likelihood representation of MIPAS profiles [PDF]
In order to avoid problems connected with the content of a priori information in volume mixing ratio vertical profiles measured with the Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding (MIPAS), a user-friendly representation of the data has ...

Maximum Likelihood Supertrees [PDF]
We analyse a maximum-likelihood approach for combining phylogenetic trees into a larger `supertree'. This is based on a simple exponential model of phylogenetic error, which ensures that ML supertrees have a simple combinatorial description (as a median tree, minimising a weighted sum of distances to the input trees).

The maximum likelihood degree [PDF]
Maximum likelihood estimation in statistics leads to the problem of maximizing a product of powers of polynomials. We study the algebraic degree of the critical equations of this optimization problem. This degree is related to the number of bounded regions in the corresponding arrangement of hypersurfaces, and to the Euler characteristic of the ...

Maximum Likelihood Identification of Dual-rate Hammerstein Systems
Aiming at a kind of dual-rate Hammerstein system, based on the auxiliary model identification idea, using the maximum likelihood principle and recursive identification technology, this paper proposes a maximum likelihood recursive least squares algorithm.
