Maximum likelihood localization: When does it fail?
ICT Express, 2016 Maximum likelihood is a criterion often used to derive localization algorithms. In particular, in this paper we focus on a distance-based algorithm for the localization of nodes in static wireless networks. Assuming that Ultra Wide Band (UWB) signals are

A new maximum-likelihood method for template fits
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2022 A common statistical problem in particle physics is to extract the number of samples which originate from a statistical process in an ensemble containing a mix of several contributing processes. The probability density function of each process is usually

Parameter uncertainties in weighted unbinned maximum likelihood fits
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2022 Parameter estimation via unbinned maximum likelihood fits is central for many analyses performed in high energy physics. Unbinned maximum likelihood fits using event weights, for example to statistically subtract background contributions via the sPlot ...

Privacy-preserving Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Distributed Data
The Journal of Privacy and Confidentiality, 2010 Recent technological advances enable the collection of huge amounts of data. Commonly, these data are generated, stored, and owned by multiple entities that are unwilling to cede control of their data. This distributed environment requires statistical

Maximum Likelihood Estimation for the Fractional Vasicek Model
Econometrics, 2020 This paper estimates the drift parameters in the fractional Vasicek model from a continuous record of observations via maximum likelihood (ML). The asymptotic theory for the ML estimates (MLE) is established in the stationary case, the explosive case ...

Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Stochastic Fractional Singular Models
IEEE Access, 2021 Using the non-causal nature of a fractional-order singular (FOS) model, this paper deals with the modification of an estimation algorithm developed by Nosrati and Shafiee, and demonstrates how the derived estimation procedure can be adjusted by ...

Lifestyle Behaviors and Cardiotoxic Treatment Risks in Adult Childhood Cancer Survivors
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Higher doses of anthracyclines and heart‐relevant radiotherapy increase cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. This study assessed CVD and CVD risk factors among adult childhood cancer survivors (CCSs) across cardiotoxic treatment risk groups and examined associations between lifestyle behaviors and treatment risks.

Parent‐to‐Child Information Disclosure in Pediatric Oncology
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Despite professional consensus regarding the importance of open communication with pediatric cancer patients about their disease, actual practice patterns of disclosure are understudied. Extant literature suggests a significant proportion of children are not told about their diagnosis/prognosis, which is purported to negatively ...

Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Mixed Fractional Vasicek Processes
Fractal and Fractional, 2022 In this paper, we consider the problem of estimating the drift parameters in the mixed fractional Vasicek model, which is an extended model of the traditional Vasicek model.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Cyclophosphamide (CY) is associated with potentially fatal cardiotoxicity, yet no electrocardiographic indices have been established for early detection of CY‐induced cardiomyopathy. This study aimed to determine whether corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation can predict early onset of CY‐related cardiac dysfunction in pediatric ...
