Maximum Lq-likelihood estimation [PDF]
The Annals of Statistics, 2010 In this paper, the maximum L$q$-likelihood estimator (ML$q$E), a new parameter estimator based on nonextensive entropy [Kibernetika 3 (1967) 30--35] is introduced. The properties of the ML$q$E are studied via asymptotic analysis and computer simulations.

Microbial-Maximum Likelihood Estimation Tool for Microbial Quantification in Food From Left-Censored Data Using Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Microbial Risk Assessment [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 In food microbial measurements, when most or very often bacterial counts are below to the limit of quantification (LOQ) or the limit of detection (LOD) in collected food samples, they are either ignored or a specified value is substituted.

Maximum likelihood estimation of age-specific incidence rate from prevalence. [PDF]
PLoS ONEUsually, age-specific incidence rates of chronic diseases are estimated from longitudinal studies that follow participants over time and record incident cases. However, these studies can be cost- and time-expensive and are prone to loss to follow up.

Semiparametric maximum likelihood probability density estimation.
PLoS ONE, 2021 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 ...

Parameter Estimation of ZZ Distribution under Progressive Type-II Censored Data
Journal of Harbin University of Science and Technology, 2021 ZZ distribution is suitable to describe the life variable of a type of storage products that rarely fail before a given design life，and the proportion of failures has increased significantly after the design life.

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 ...

Joint likelihood estimation and model order selection for outlier censoring
IET Radar, Sonar & Navigation, 2021 This study deals with the problem of outlier censoring from the secondary data in a radar scenario, where the number of outliers is unknown. To this end, a procedure consisting of joint likelihood estimation and statistical model order selection (MOS) is
