A consistent estimator for the binomial distribution in the presence of “incidental parameters”: an application to patent data [PDF]
, 2003 In this paper a consistent estimator for the Binomial distribution in the presence of incidental parameters, or fixed effects, when the underlying probability is a logistic function is derived.

The Density of the Maximum Likelihood Estimator
Econometrica, 1999 In this paper we derive an expression for the exact density of the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) in the case where the MLE is uniquely defined at each point in the sample space by the vanishing of the score vector.

Statistica, 2018 The problem of estimating the mean matrix of a matrix-variate normal distribution with a covariance matrix is considered under two loss functions. We construct a class of empirical Bayes estimators which are better than the maximum likelihood estimator ...

Mean square convergence rates for maximum quasi-likelihood estimator
Stochastic Systems, 2015 In this note we study the behavior of maximum quasilikelihood estimators (MQLEs) for a class of statistical models, in which only knowledge about the first two moments of the response variable is assumed.

A Comparison Between the Bayesian and the Classical Estimators of Weibull Distribution
Journal of Kufa for Mathematics and Computer, 2013 In this paper ,we study estimation of two parameters of Weibull distribution .Methods of estimation used are maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) and Bayes. We compared the numerical results by simulation in MATLAB program.
